The dial is shaped as a horizontal rectangle with semi-circular ends, and is mounted in the gable above the entrance to the south porch. Across the top is the motto: ’LIVE THE HOUR’, and below the gnomon root is the date ’MMVII’. The short rod gnomon springs from a small 8-rayed sun, its tip forming the nodus for equinox and solstice curves. The upright hour numerals are VI - XII - IV - VI. The furniture is either gold-leafed or gold painted.
