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

This large horizontal dial has curious lines. Only a few numerals are present. The gnomon has a nodus and there are 14 declination lines, possibly for special dates. There is also a vertical section to the gnomon sitting on the equinoctial line, but there is no second set of hour lines as in an Oughtred dial.
