Dial in Kent
Near the northern boundary of the churchyard. The motto round the circumference reads: "See me right and use me well and I the time to you will tell". The dial shows 4am to 8pm in 30,15 and 7.5mins in an unusual time scale that echoes the shape of the eight compass lobes - though farther out. The numerals are inside the time scale and the hour lines pass through them. An unusual if not unique dial. It is mounted on a rough square section stone (concrete) pedestal 600h with a square capital. At one time there was another dial in this churchyard - now missing.
