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.

The dial is on a wall declining 13 deg west. Thin black hour lines are marked on white raised ’arrows’ on a white wall. The hours are marked part way along the lines for Local Apparent Time and LAT +1 (Arabic numerals for LAT). Shows 7am to 6pm in hours. A circular window forms the root of the gnomon. On a nearby plaque is the motto: ’Sol Omnibus Lucet’ (The Sun shines on all). Also on the plaque are an EoT graph and instructions, Lat/Long, Declination, and a sun face.
