Although you can just see the Date-scale in this photograph, it
shows the official 'inauguration ceremony' which took place at
the "Carnfunnock Country Park", near Larne (Northern Ireland,
in July 1990).  We were greatly honoured to have this officially
opened by the Duchess of Kent (a member of the British Royal
Family, who - for many years - presented all winners with their
prizes, at the prestigious "Wimbledon" Tennis Championship).
 
This layout is located within the 'Time Garden', which contains
several types of sundial  -  and our "Sunclock"  is described in
their brochure as being the most interesting of these sundials,
due to its interactive quality by using a person's own shadow !
 

 
 
 
Several well-known 'Stately Homes' within the United Kingdom
have unique "Sunclocks"  in their grounds (Chatsworth House,
Blenheim Palace, Longleat, Lincoln Castle, etc)  -  and this first
photograph below shows the layout, made of concrete, located
outside the 'walled garden' at Chatsworth House, in Derbyshire.
 
Our second picture, illustrates the hard-landscaped "Sunclock"
layout situated within a courtyard area at Longleat, in Wiltshire.
 

 

 

 
Due to their obvious 'interactive' quality, "Sunclocks"  could be
used to attract people towards an area - and temporary layouts
are regularly created for this purpose at Gardening Shows, etc.
 
For example, the following picture illustrates one on a 'decking'
area at the prestigious "Malvern Spring Garden Show", in 2005.
(As this Show only lasts 3 days, just one 'stand here' point was
needed - instead of the normal Date-scale, to cover a full year).
 

 
If you are located in the UK and may like a similar layout, then
we recommend contacting Andrew Alexander at 'A.A. Outdoor
Decking', who has been a "Royal Horticultural Society" medal-
winner.  You could telephone Andrew direct on: 01568 616637.
 
Our unique Human Sundials are starting to become popular as
a useful 'interactive' feature, on normal plain wooden decking.
Instead of just painting the markings, you could obtain a kit of
thin metal parts  -  see "Sixpenny Forge", in our metal section.
 
 
 
A "Sunclock"  is also ideal in the grounds of museums - or any
similar locations.   This next photograph shows one situated in
their 'arboretum' at the Jodrell Bank Science Centre, Cheshire.
 
Our custom-made 'kits' section, shows pictures of a nice stone
layout sited in the grounds at Bushey Museum (Hertfordshire).

Response Form  -  or click on this link to see why "Sunclocks"
have become so popular, when compared with other sundials.
 
 
Remember you could also make money with Human Sundials,
so please contact us if you may be interested in generating an
income, from this very unusual 'opportunity'.  We suggest that
you telephone us, plus ask to speak direct with Douglas Hunt,
whose sundial plans have been in use world-wide since 1986.
 
Douglas should then be able to discuss several 'possibilities',
and give some advice suited to your personal circumstances.
 
 
Our unique sundial designs are located in numerous different
situations  -  from Schoolyards, to private gardens and Parks.
 
These are particularly popular within the Educational Sector,
due to many 'curriculum-wide' aspects, of a Human Sundial !
 
All of our sundial layouts are 'customized', for your location,
so you can be sure that they will indicate correct clock time.
