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.
Set into the brick wall between timber framing, below a small first floor window, this vertical dial declines to the east. The stone dial plate with a chamfered edge is painted white but carries no markings at all. There is an offset strip gnomon of iron with a straight support. The dial is recorded in the ’Inventory of Historic Monuments in Buckinghamshire’ where it is dated 1692. It is likely that the original painted markings were allowed to decay to such an extent that it was not possible to determine where the hour lines were. This would make it difficult for anyone without a knowledge of dialling to restore it.
