Description
This is a sundial located in the garden approximately 5 metres south of the Old Parsonage, dating from the early to mid-19th century. It is made of gritstone and features a circular base with a square block above it. The sundial has a bulbous vase baluster with roll moulding at the neck. The cap stone and bronze gnomon, which is inscribed "JOHN MOORE & SONS Clerkenwell London," are possibly replacements. This sundial is similar to one found in the churchyard of St Judes, Hartwith-cum-Winsley, dated 1826, and a slimmer version located in the graveyard of Dacre Providence Chapel, dated 1828.
