Dear Clem,

If your travels take you anywhere close to LARNE, (on the North-East coast
of 'Northern Ireland') - then visit the nearby "Carnfunnock Country Park".

In July 1990, a walled 'Time Garden' was inaugurated there by the "Duchess
of Kent"; (lady who presents the prizes at Wimbledon tennis championship).

This 'Time Garden' contains many different types of sundial - and includes
a large ground-level 'analemmatic' (or "Human Sundial"), in black granite.
