You (and the Sun) provide the shadow, to tell the time.
Stand on the correct month, and look at the time.
Remember this dial is GMT, add 1 hour in the Summer months for BST.

In the gardens there is a solid granite seating area engraved with pictures and words to celebrate the life and work of the four firefighters who lost their lives at Atherstone-on-Stour in November 2007.

Visitors to the site will be able to spend time making their own stone rubbings to take away as a memento of their visit.

Opened 24th April 2009
Sundial Type: Horizontal - Flat base, Ground or Pedestal mounted dial plate
