THE DIAL HOUSE . WEST LAVINGTON . WILTS

A Grade II* listed William and Mary manor house dated to 1691, with a fine sundial to grace its symmetrical exterior. It’s hard to tell if the dial is contemporary with the building of the manor, or was added during a later restoration. Given the dial’s very specific location, it is perhaps more likely to be original than a later addition. 6m S of Devizes

The quarter hours are marked inside the narrow frame between the dial face and the numerals
