SUNDIAL in HOPE CHURCHYARD
Opposite the South church door is a calvary of five octagonal steps with a sundial pillar mounted in an octagon base on top.
The base has a square hole in it which would accommodate the Saxon cross shaft.
It is supposed that it was once mounted on the calvary but this is more typical of a market cross.
St Peter's cross and part of a guidestoop are close by.
