Sundial and English Civil War scars
This sundial, with the delightful heading "Do not forget to live" is on the south face of the tower of SP3565 : Offa's Church, Offchurch . The pock marks are said to have been made by the musket balls fired by Cromwell's troops as they passed by during the English Civil war.
