St Augustine of Canterbury’s Church, East Hendred

Rectangular vertical dial high on the tower. The dial appears to have no hour lines, merely upright Arabic numerals from 7am to 3pm engraved into the stone. It is possible that the dial, including hour lines, was previously painted and engraved more recently. It is on the second storey of the tower, overlooking Church Street. This wall declines 5 degrees east of due south. The strip gnomon has a single straight supporter.
