Square stone sundial inset in brick wall over entrance into South porch. The dial has a wooden surrounding frame. The chapter ring and the rest of outer dial stone is painted or otherwise finished differently than the dial plate proper. The time is shown from 7am to 4pm in quarter hours. There is a Sun (larger) and Crescent Moon (smaller) décor in the top left and right corners respectively. The gnomon is a bold iron strip with a single horizontal supporter. A second (older) dial is inside over the inner porch door.
