- Description:
- Nice horizontal dial sitting on a 6 x 4 ft (2x1,3m) stone pedestal. The dial itself is 5-ft (1.5m) in diameter with a 2.5-ft (0.75m) high gnomon of open-work bronze. The lines, numerals and lettering of the dial face are so finely done that one cannot tell whether the dial plate was made of cast stone or was carved by an extraordinarily skilled mason. The gnomon, unfortunately, is situated incorrectly on the dial face. The point at which the stile diverges from the dial plate is about five inches south of the correct point where the hour lines converge.
