This dial is inscribed in the chapter ring with the date and ’Long Liffe ye King Charles’. There is a skull to the west of the gnomon and a scythe to the east, and below them ’As the long hours / do pass away / so doth / the life of man / decay’. The gnomon is hard to see in the photograph but has some elaboration. The hours are IIII - XII - IIII - VIII, read from the outside and possibly divided to 5 minutes.
