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.

Cork University Campus, Cork

The dial is in the Campus gardens, on an old stone bulbous (and repaired) pedestal with a circular capital. It has a Coat of Arms which is not that of University. The EoT scale is very indistinct and its presence is deduced rather than seen! An inscription reads: "Presented to Cork University by the ??? TW Conway ??? FRSS Lond, West Cork 1931". The dial shows 5am to 7pm in 5 min marks and is thought to be a replacement.
