Hi Bob et al,
Thanks for that - good to know the house is up for sale and that the sundial is
a selling feature. I believe that the dial is the one which can be seen from
the street and was described by Harriet James and me in:
H. James & J. Davis:
‘A close look at a Salisbury dial’, BSS Bulletin, 17(iii),
pp.101-3, (September 2005).
Regards,
John
