Belmond Le Manoir au Quatre Saisons, Great Milton
In the garden of the restaurant is a cube dial dating from 1599 set on a pillar which is an upward extension of the corner of a garden building. It measures abput 300mm x 3oomm x 400mm high. Only the south face has any definite markings and shows the hours VI - VI divided into half hours, the hour lines emanating from a semicircle round the gnomon root. All four sheet iron gnomons are there. On the top of the cube is a bronze owl. Like many interesting old dials this one is now very much shaded by trees.
