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 house in Seckford Street. It has a semicircular dial scale showing 6am to 6pm in half hours, in Arabic numerals aligned with the hour lines. The top half of the dialplate has an embossed figure of Helios in a chariot. The dial may not be properly aligned to face south though Seckford Street does lie nearly east-west. The date of 1705 is false. See also SRN 5529 at Clare, Suffolk, and 4659 at Amersham Common, Bucks. A Pearson Page model, possibly later reproduced by DistinctlyBritish.
