It dates from the 18th century or possibly earlier.There was once a ball finial as indicated by the rusting spike on top. Rusted fragments of gnomons are present on the South and East faces and gnomon holes are visible on the West face. No markings remain on any of the faces. Each face is 250mm square.The pillar is mounted on a chamfered square block 840mm high. A mass dial can be seen on the church wall.
