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 painted on a stone set into the brickwork of the side wall of a building adjacent to the Society building, with a protective stone moulding above. Across the top the motto ’MOX NOX’ and a crescent moon (or ’C’). In the centre a shield with ’ S. / R. P. / 1702 / W. T. ’ The gnomon, cut from a single sheet incorporating a shaped support, springs from a full flaming sun. Upright numerals IV - XII - II are separated by decorative motifs. Hour lines and half hour lines, but they are somewhat at random, probably having drifted over many re-paintings.
