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

The dial is over the front windows of the house, where the decoration has been arranged to accommodate it. It shows 6am to 4pm in half and quarter hours, with some half hour lines having dot terminators. The motto across the top reads: "Festina Lente". There is some spalling of the surface. It has a bronze gnomon and numerals mounted proud of a brown coloured surface.
