Ada Salter Rose Garden, Southwark

The dial is set into a paved terrace in the Rose Garden. The gnomon is a large thin plate with a blazing sun in the upper half and the date 1936 in strap work filling the lower half. The gnomon appears to be stained green, and the sun has a three dimensional brass body. Roman numerals read from inside VI - XII - IV - VIII, divided to quarter hours.
