The sundial is also pictured on page 25 of Mike Cowham’s excellent Sundials of 
the British Isles.

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

An article in The New York Times April 29, 2014

 

Home With a Royal Connection, in Search of a Buyer

 

A historic house in Salisbury , England where King Charles II stayed is for 
sale on the public market for the first time in 600 years.

 

Excerpt:

Another terraced area has an 18th-century blue-and-gold sundial on the exterior 
wall that features a quote from “Macbeth”: “Life is but a walking shadow.”

 

Bob
