The inscription reads:
'T.W.E.W.
.............
ann: omi: 1589.
Repaired 1817.'
The seat is low with the pavement nearby and stonework rounded.
Thanks to additional information from Jeffers86:
The inscription is in Greek, and reads tw theo proskunason, which means "bow before God" or "worship God".
Beneath that there is a Latin abbreviation which reads "ann:dmi" which is short for anno domini which means "in the year of our Lord", in other words, "AD".
