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 House, Westminster

The dial is clearly visible from the street, mounted between two ground floor windows above a roofed-in storage area on the pavement. It is a plain square concrete block with upright numerals VI - XII - IV - VI and scribed hour lines. There is a sculpted face in dark material at the top centre. The thin plate gnomon has interesting cut-outs but it is not clear what they represent.
