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.
Painted on the masonry of the south-east facing wall of the County Museum is a vertical dial which declines 62° East. The building dates from 1670 but it is uncertain whether the dial is quite so old. On a blue background is an unusual mixture of gold Roman and Arabic numerals: XI, XII, I, II (the last two engraved) and 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10. There are traces of a few hour lines. The hour scale is a blue semicircle on an off-white base. The delineation (and hence the presumed declination) may be suspect. There is an iInteresting pattern in thebackground. The gnomon is a bent rod.
