The sundial is situated above the door of the South porch of the church. The church guide book dates it as 1759 but my photograph of the sundial clearly shows it to date from 1753. The sundial is still keeping good time which is several minutes later than GMT.
Sundial Type: Vertical - Wall mounted dial plate
