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 made from York stone set in red concrete brick paviors, surrounded by blue-black paviors. There are inserted stones for hours, cardinal points, eight pointers to local and other places, the logo of Wisborough Green Horticultural Society, a sunburst, an instruction plaque, and a dedication plaque with the quotation from T.S.Eliot: ‘TIME PRESENT AND TIME PAST ARE BOTH PERHAPS PRESENT IN TIME FUTURE’. The date scale is formed from two slabs of York stone totalling 1.4 m x 0.4 m, by 50 mm thick. Overall the dial is 6600 wide and the semi-major axis of the hour points is 2400.
Compass directions, quote from TS Eliot, date scale of months and solstices.
The time scale shows GMT with hour numerals IV - XII - IV - VIII.
