BRIDOL is the British Sundial Society's Register of Fixed and Mass Dials, which gives detail and photographs of about 8000 fixed sundials and 3000 mass dials in the UK.

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

Penshurst Place (4), Tonbridge

Originally located in the Rose garden, this is a multiple dial with many faces, all flat. The dial shows 4am to 8pm in hours and only hour lines are visible. It is mounted on a cylindrical stone column 950h. A similar dial is nearby. Some Penshust dials have been taken indoors following the theft of SRN 0578 in 2004.
