Dial in Clwyd Area

One of a handful of dials on UK bridges. A plaque below it states: ’This dial was placed here to commemorate the tercentenary of the bridge. August 27th 1936’. The dial plate has Art Nouveau Arabic numerals, read from the outside, with a noon gap, divided to 30, 15 and 5 mins. The dial is on quite a high wall on the side of the narrow, busy bridge - famous because it was wrongly said to have been built by Inigo Jones and that it wobbles from side to side.
