The dial declines 35 degrees East and the gnomon is missing. Inscription reads: "Lockwood 1984 Meridian Local Time 7’ after Greenwich. Longitude 1:47 West, Latitude 53:38 North". Shows 5am to 3pm in half hours. Near full length hour and half hour lines. Two holes close together for gnomon mounting at root - gnomon appears to have been singly supported. Gnomon mounting holes don’t appear to indicate the declination shown by the hour lines.
