Faslane Cemetery, Garelochhead

This is an early 20th century monument to the Davidson family. It is an ashlar sundial on an octagonal base with a barley-sugar column of twisted serpents. A capital with figurative carvings of four winds supports the square sundial block diagonally, with cherub heads under each corner; there is carving above capped by a ball finial. The west and the south copper gnomons remain.
