Two for the price of one, this
month. The dials, dated 1748, have
clearly been repainted many times, and
though the delineation has strayed
disastrously, they still have charm.
The west dial shows the hour lines as
heavy rain from a russet storm cloud;
and the south dial uses the same earthy
colour to form what can be seen as an
unsettling face with widely separated
staring eyes above an all-engulfing
mouth.
