This is a cast bronze horizontal dial with all the markings in relief. It shows the usual hours 4am to 8pm divided into halves and quarters but only the numerals VI - VI are shown.Noon is marked by an O. At the south is a winged hourglass. The gnomon, which is set at 40° has a bird as its supporter. The dial carries a quotation from Browning; ’Grow old along ith me, the best is yet to be.’ It has a rough cast concrete pedestal with a staddle stone as its cap.
