On a gable end East of the porch is this 18th century vertical South dial which shows the hours VI - V divided into halves. The morning hour lines look wrong. The half hour lines end at a semicircle round the gnomon root while the hour lines continue to the root itself. The initials T.S. can be seen to either side of the gnomon and these may represent the maker, a churchwarden or even the vicar of that time. The dial measures about 350mmw x 280mmh.
