Bekonscot Model Village, Beaconsfield

A miniature 4-ring armillary sphere about 40mm in diameter. It has a number of faults in that it has Roman numerals I - XII round 180° of the hour ring which is itself in an incorrect position, being horizontal. It is made of metal (?aluminium) and is a 21st century product. Not a bad impression in a small model village, but a pity it was not made to work.
