Two young visitors view the Oculus Table sundial, with its instructions, information, and drawings of landmarks, used for north alignment, around the edge. The time is 10:30 on a day close to the summer solstice.
This sundial was inspired by the fashion for Egyptian motifs, colours and symbolism in Art Deco of the 1920s.
Completed in 2013 and designed by Dr Peter Bristow, it is one of four made for his garden in Oxfordshire by Harriet James.
