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 set in the fanlight of the main entrance. It is one of the final works of Henry Gyles, the last of four generations of glassmakers in York, and is probably the finest complete glass sundial extant, undamaged and with the gnomon still intact.
