#1 Cheviot School, Canterbury, New Zealand

Fifteen years ago following the discovery of the Cheviot School
sundial a passion (or maybe an obsession!) was sparked.
Since then I have been enthusiastic about finding and recording sundials and meeting sundialophiles.

The motto on the beautifully engraved dial face is
LUX TUA VITA MEA.

A plaque on this elegant base showed it was presented by M.J. Read.



Two years ago all that remained was the concrete slab and four rocks.

I wonder what happened to this sundial?
