Dial in Gloucestershire

The dial is cast in the top surface of the mount stone of the pedestal, which is a square with the corners removed. ’Celtic’ pattern in circle at the gnomon root. Upright (from the S) Roman numerals V - XII - IV - VI. Hour lines between the central design and the chapter ring. At the S of the chapter ring ’EHEU FUGACES - LABUNTURANNI’ (sic, there is no gap before ANNI). A design of sun flames outside the chapter ring. Dial currently (June 2005) under the front porch - to be re-sited ’one day’.
