The sundial on the church of King Charles the Martyr, Tunbridge Wells, often spoken of as the "Old Chapel." It was the first church in Tunbridge Wells, built as a chapel-of-ease to Tonbridge between 1678-84, was not consecrated till 1887, and for a century and a half was the only church in the place. In 1684 it was described as a "commodious, beautiful, and elegant structure," and as a specimen of church architecture of that period it has considerable interest. There is no date on the dial, which has recently been repainted, but it probably belongs to the eighteenth century.

I would comment that it is possible to "waste" a lot of time taking photos!!!
