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 obelisk is 10 metres high and 1 metre square at the base. It is surrounded by sixteen one-metre diameter limestone blocks, each showing an hour of the day from 6am to 10pm in Roman numerals (VI to XXII). The south face of the obelisk has a motto in Latin (’Ad Sidera’), Gaelige (’I dTreo na Speartha) and English (’To the Stars’). The north face carries the latitude and longitude, and the west and east faces have the year in Arabic and Roman numerals.
This impressive monument is not designed to indicate the time with any precision.
