Cushna Gap, Bisham

This semicircular, wrought-iron dial has an iron gnomon with scroll support and ball at the tip. It shows hours from 6am to 5pm but is incorrectly delineated. The wall declines approximately 70° East of South and will only receive sunshine from sunrise to 1pm. The whole structure is quite large, measuring about 1800mm in width and 1000mm in height.
