Description

The sundial, located in the formal garden south of Dawlish College (formerly Mamhead House), was designed between 1827 and 1833 by Anthony Salvin for Sir R.W. Newman, Baronet. It is made of bathstone and is styled in the Jacobean manner. The sundial features a pierced stone pedestal that resembles a large Jacobean pendant. Around the dial, there is carved text in Gothic lettering that reads 'aeternitas abhor momento perdet'. The metal dial is signed by Houghton and Simms of London. This sundial is an integral part of the formal garden associated with Mamhead House.
