Chastleton House [NT] (3), Chastleton

On the west quoin of the west tower is a vertical dial with its aquare dial plate much obscured by lichen. It is carved into the stone of the wall and dates from 1649. Three fixing holes suggest that this should be a west declining dial and it appears to show the hours VI to V. A few hour lines are visible.
