I assume that sundials are classed as clocks, if so I found this one above the south enterence of St John the Evangalist Church off Upper Briggate.

Just a thought, if St John,s Church is the oldest in Leeds, would this mean that this sundial is the oldest time piece in the City ?

It doesn't seem to be working. It shows half past six all the bleeding time!

I took this photo of the sundial today (March 28 2012). I thought this sundial would have been covered in Secret Leeds before and I found this thread. I also thought that it would still be OK to post this image. It was taken at 12:16 BST so the sundial showing shortly after 11:00 is accurate as that will be under GMT as the Sun time did not go forward 1 hour last weekend!
