Yes they are at the Globe Theatre.  The dials are actually mounted on a 
building at the edge of the New Globe Theatre Courtyard.  You will recall that 
there was great difficulty in finding the space to locate the Globe replica and 
it is therefore quite close to other buildings.


The dials are nearly Direct ones and are visible from New Globe Walk.   Both 
dials radiate from a central circular grey disc (650mm diam) edged in gold.  
The south dial declines west.  the west dial declines north.  They were 
designed by Johanna Migdal and made by Brookbrae Ltd.  Installed I think in 
1998.


Hope this helps.

Subject: Globe Theatre Sundial?



Hello British Dialists in particular:
 
I came across these two photos of a double sundial attachedto a tower.
 
The photographer claims that it is located at the GlobeTheatre in London.
 
But this tower certainly doesn’t look like the GlobeTheatre!
 
Do any of you recognize these photos an know where thesedials are located?  And 
do you know anything about them?
 
Thanks so much,
 
John
