Dial in Grampian Region

The dial stands on a square-section pillar decorated with strange faces and fruits, about 2100 high overall, on three spreading square stone steps. It is an octagonal block with 24 hollows all with dials: 8 bowl hollows on a central band, and 4 square and 4 triangular hollows on the upper and on the lower sloping sections. There is a ball finial marked as a dial on top. Most metal gnomons are still present.
