The sundial was erected by churchwardens in 1827.
Made of sandstone. A tall octagonal pillar with moulded top and wide moulded base. Each facet of the octagon has a deeply cut roll-moulded lancet rising to a pointed arch. On top, a brass plate by W S Jones of Holborn, London, inscribed for W Potter and R Edwards, churchwardens, and giving the date.
Included as a complete sundial in a style typical of its period, of group value with the church.
