"The dial plate is set into stonework above the entrance to the south porch. It is a replacement for SRN 5151, which had become badly eroded.
The dial plate is chamfered and has had the two upper corners removed, as on the original. Upright numerals VI – XII – IV, with hour lines to a large square around the gnomon toe (top corners cut), and short half hour lines. Gnomon again modelled on the original, a plate with a horizontal support."
