The dial is on the south wall of building at SE of school complex, adjoining playing fields, some 3 m above ground. It is a memorial to Mrs Hiller, a cheerful and popular receptionist at the school, who had been tragically killed in a road accident. A fairly simple design with a positive English motto and Arabic numerals was thought appropriate. Peter Ransom, who teaches at the school, was instrumental in having it made.
Inscriptions - at the top ’Times to smile’; below the numerals ’1957 CHRISTINE HILLER 2003’; bottom left ’Andrew James’; and bottom right ’No.4 MMVII’. Ref article in BSS Bulletin.
