Presents a rare horizontal brass dial signed 'Beilby Bristol,' made by Richard and Charles Beilby who ran the instrument business (1810-1820) after Joshua Springer. The Beilbys are descendants of the famed 'Ingenious Beilby' family of enamel engravers from Newcastle. The dial follows a standard London design but features a unique unpierced gnomon set at 52°.
