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

Dial in Highland Region

The dial stands on a square stone pillar carved with monl-like figures, abouy 2.5 ft high overall. It is a small facetted block with a north-sloping top with an equatorial dial (no star); a south-facing hemi-cylinder; all other surfaces flat or with various-shaped hollows including rectangles and spade-shapes (east and west); dials on all available surfaces. Some gnomons are present (that on the south upside down). Ref: A R Somerville, Proc Soc Antiq Scot, 117, 1987, "The Ancient Sundials of Scotland", p17 (B4).
