The Armillary Sundial is located in the middle of the High Street, not a brilliant example as it is in the shade by 1pm. It is surrounded by slabs in the pavement marking the points of the compass. Donated by the local Rotary Clubs for the millennium.
The photograph of the plaque is not very good so I have attached the text here:
"Service Above Self"
