The spherical dial stands on a twisted stone column. It has Roman numerals and the time is indicated by the line where the shaded side of the sphere starts. There is a long arrow piercing the sphere, but it probably does not act as a gnomon. More information and better photographs are requested.
SRN 5682 at Hartland Abbey in Devon has similarities but indicates the time directly by the shadow of its gnomon.
