Description

This sundial, dating from around 1772, is located in the churchyard approximately 15 metres south of the Church of All Saints in Kirk Deighton. It features a gritstone base and a limestone baluster shaft topped with a bronze gnomon, standing about 1.5 metres tall overall. The base consists of two steps, with the lower step measuring approximately one metre square. The baluster has a somewhat shapeless vase form, with a square plinth, a reeded lower section, and a frieze adorned with stylised acanthus decoration and roll mouldings beneath the octagonal gnomon. At the time of resurvey, the sundial was extensively weathered, except for the southeast portion, which is sheltered by a yew tree. The dial includes the names of countries and cities engraved on it, indicating the time in those locations.
