The footpath along the Leeds-Liverpool Canal north-east of Barnoldswick gives access to this vertical stone dial, which is canted out to the west from the cottage wall on which it is mounted so that it faces directly south, at a height of about 7 m. It was created in 1824 by Isaac Jones, son of the original lock-keeper John Jones, and commemorates the replacement of a staircase of locks by three single ones.
