| A remarkable dial which is very different to all the dials on this website by other makers. The maker was John Bonar, a schoolmaster from Ayr, who constructed an amazing series of dials at the beginning of the 1600s. They are so distinctive they are generally just called Bonar dials. |

Many thanks to Michael Harley for these images and information. His website on the sundials of Ireland is well worth a visit and was an inspiration and spur for this site. |
