Bradley Manor [NT], Newton Abbot

A 19th century bronze horizontal dial is to be found here showing the usual hours IV-VIII divided into halves and intervals of two minutes. The latter are marked in Arabic numerals every 20 minutes. The dial plate has two rings concentric with the chapter ring and there is an 8-pont compass rose in the centre. It is fixed to the plinth by four solid looking clamps.The solid gnomon has a sigmoid outline beneath the style, and side supports.
