Sundial Ely Cathedral Ely Cambridgeshire England UK. The moto in Greek can mean "Know the Time".

---

Ely Cathedral on the outer side of the south wall. High on the wall to the east of the south door is this sundial. The dial face declines slightly west, so more afternoon hours than morning hours are marked. The half-hours are marked by crosses. The motto in Greek above the dial face means "Know the (appropriate) time" or "Choose the timely moment". The date of the sundial is unknown. There are records of its restoration but not of its original setting-up.
