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.
Private but intended to be viewed from the street outside. One of a pair with SRN 6400. They are mounted one on each gable of a new building, whose London brick walls were strengthened to take the weight of the dials. They sit either side of the Greenwich meridian (within a few feet.) They are inspired by a pair of 16th century dials on Palladio’s Villa Barbara in Italy. They decline 31 deg E of S. Each is of Portland stone 50mm thick, with cavetto moulding to edge, supported by two Portland stone corbels.
SRN 6399: The gnomon is a simple rod with a brass sphere nodus electro plated in gold. Two declination curves, the upper in silver for Christmas Day and the lower in gold for Trinity Sunday (3rd June 2007). Upright Roman hour numerals V - XII - IV. Alternating red and black hour lines (from lower declination curve to an unmarked semicircle around the gnomon root) and half hour lines (from the lower to the upper declination curve).
Motto in separate panel at top reads "OMNIA TEMPUS HABENT" (Ecclesiates Ch3 V1, "To everything there is a season ..."). Motto continued in SRN 6400.
