This dial on a headstone in the memorial garden is a replacement for one which was stolen in 1997. It has just five numerals around the perimeter: 6am, 9am, noon, 3pm and 6pm, but hour lines indicate times from 4am to 8pm in hours. Mounted on the same oblong granite block with inscription: Thomas K H Davies, a dear husband and father 1925 - 1971. ’Say not goodbye but in some brighter clime bid me good morning’. Also to Thomas A Moseley 1924 - 1997. The old dial had the motto ’Sic Vita’ .
