To find the time of day with this giant sundial, stand on the current month's marker with one foot on either side of the central line. Your shadow will fall on one of the sandstone markers, which are approximately 100 million years old, and you should count the stones starting from the 6 am marker. The stone your shadow falls on indicates the time. Remember to add an hour if it's British Summer Time (BST), otherwise the sundial shows the correct time in winter. The sundial is made from waste sandstone from a local quarry.
