Some of these are in private gardens, but the majority are publicly available.

This sundial was made by Dr P G Arblaster for his home in Lymington in 1991, and presented by him to the RCP in 1999. It would seem originally to have had hour lines and declination lines, but these and any other furniture are no longer visible in the photographs. The base is made from a cast of an ancient piece of mineralised wood from a petrified forest in the Arabian Desert. More information on the dial is requested.
