Some of these are in private gardens, but the majority are publicly available.

Lloyd Park (1), Waltham Forest

The dial is by the entrance from the A503. Stone globe on brick column 4 ft high. Shows hours only, vertical gnomon slightly crooked in 1980. Reported in 2001 by Max Wiseman to have no markings, no gnomon; but in 2005, it had at least hour lines and faint remains of Roman numerals. It also carried the inscription ’THIS CAPITAL AND BALL WAS PART OF OLD SHERN HALL’, and N, E and W on the north, east and west sides of the sphere, none of this previously reported. The house contains the William Morris Gallery.
