The dial is a square slab of red sandstone with moulded edges and a circular head piece. It is mounted on the stone wall of the church and protected by a lead rain shield. Across the top is ’My days are like a shadow that declineth’ (Psalm cii,11). Around a small circle at the gnomon root is ’LAT 56 34 36 N’ and below that the date ’1871’. The upright hour numerals are V - XII - IV - VI, divided to half and quarter hours.
