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

Argos Store, Merton

The dial consists of a large curved dial plate over the entrance of the store. There are 13 ’Argos’ red stove enamelled xiphoidal hour markers, and the rod gnomon springs from a blue disc (originally white) with a red surround. On the disc is ’C St J H Daniel / 1996 / BROOKBRAE LIMITED’.
