Hello John
(cc. Andrew & Patrick)
I believe this Henley Hall is in Shropshire.
Because in Behrendt's article "Alte englishe Fenstersonnenufhren
(II)" he says it's there. (SEE ARTICLE PHOTOCOPY page 187 HERE: http://advanceassociates.com/Sundials/Stained_Glass/sundials_files/Alte_Englische_Fenstersonnenuhren_II_1990_article.pdf
On the right side table, on the same page, you'll
see he places it at 53.0 degrees North (Is that near
Shropshire?)
In the same article, on page 184 is the same photo
that I have that Chris took. On page 183, the last paragraph describes the
dial in German. I do not have a translation of this so I don't know what
it says. (By the way there is a lengthy description of the Litchfield dial
in the last paragraph of page 185, but I don't have a translation of that
either. I'd love to find out what it says).
Chris Daniel is the only dialing person I know of
that has actually seen the dial (except for Behrendt). If you could
contact Chris, I'm sure he'll know which Henley Hall it's in. (I can't
reach him because he doesn't answer my emails).
Good Luck,
John
