RE: sundials and tower clocks
Hi Andrew et al, There is a picture of about 9 of the dials from Scottish lighthouses lined up on a wall (just before their sale in 1997) in BSS Bulletin 11(i), p. 49, February 1999. The story of the Bath Pump Room Tompion dial has been in the Bulletin too - all (sundial) life is there!

Re: sundials and tower clocks
Small point, John Davis asks why Scottish lighthouse keepers used EoT values engraved on their sundials. Lighthouse lights, like ships' lights, are lit from sunset to sunrise. An error of even as much as five minutes would not matter very much.

The order is precise: The Lighthouse Timepiece is to be kept right, by observing, if possible, once a week, the indication of the Sun-dial, in the following manner:- The Principal Keeper shall go to the dial, when the sun is shining, and shall watch until the shadow of the style touches any hour, half hour or other time agreed before hand with the Assistant, who shall stand on the balcony, waiting a signal from the Principal. The Principal shall then make the signal, on seeing which, the Assistant shall immediately set the Timepiece to the time already agreed upon. The Principal shall then take a note from the Table of the Equation of Time engraved on the Sun-dial, of the number of minutes by which the clock should differ from the time given by the dial; and shall afterwards proceed at once to the Lightroom where he shall put the timepiece back or forward according as the Clock shall be slower or faster than the Sun at the time.
