Dial in Hereford & Worcester

A copper horizontal dial is set on a cylindrical stone pillar with a square base and three step plinth 2590mm high. It shows IIII - VIII in undivided hours (though dots between the numerals may be meant as half hour markers) with unusually small aligned numerals read from inside the chapter ring. It is unusual in that the gnomon root, surrounded by a circle, is at the centre. Large sheet triangular gnomon. The dial measures 205mm across.
