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.

Cholmondeley Castle, Malpas

The dial is in the Rose Garden near the Tennis Court. Sadly surface corrosion around the edges has destroyed much detail, but although it is clearly not the original dial on this pedestal, it is still interesting. It has bands for many cities, and 8 subsidiary dials on the outer perimeter. More photos and information requested.
