Village Gardens, Portmeirion

This dial is located in the village gardens. The dial is engraved with hour lines for 6am to 6pm, an 8 point compass rose in the centre, and information relating to the equation of time and British summer time corrections. The noon line has no separation to allow for the gnomon width. The dial is mounted on a lead cherub pedestal.
