A modern dial with Arabic numbers to the south-east of the churchyard. The motto reads: "Let others tell of storms and showers I’ll only count your sunny hours". The dial has a spurious date of 1767, a sunface in the centre, and no split noon. It shows 4am to 8pm in 30, 15 and 7.5 minute marks. Dial in memory of Ivy Hilda Jones d 1986. "Friend of all / In thanksgiving from the people of ***" is inscribed on the capital around the dial. Mounted on a square section tapered shaft set on a circular base on a 3-step circular stone plinth.
[The original dial on this plinth was labelled ’Wm Jared fecit 1759’ but was stolen in 1985.]
