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.

St Adwena Church, Tresinney

This slate dial suffers shading from the barge boards of the porch and an electric lamp. This obscures the names of the churchwardens, I Lean and M Kernick, and the date 1735. The rest of the dial fares better though the lower left corner is damaged. Noon is marked by a cross. The gnomon appears to be a replacement.
