Description

The sundial, dated 1835, is located approximately 250 metres to the north-west of Glenthorne. It is made of limestone ashlar and features a baluster design with a moulded square plinth and a coursed rubble sub-plinth. The sundial has a square copper dial plate, which is inscribed: "Pontis Aetnsti, Londiniensis Clathnus, A.S. 1750: Situ antiquo Sublatus in hor loco Positus fuit A. S. 1835". This sundial was likely originally placed below the terrace to the north-east of Glenthorne, a house constructed for the Reverend W. S. Halliday, which began in 1829. It was probably moved to its current location near the kitchen garden in the late 20th century.
