Greetings fellow dialists, I am seeking advice about a country house pedestal dial of the seventeenth century. It is a valuable dial by a known maker and stands in the estate grounds, which are open to the public. The administrator of the estate is aware that the dial is at risk of theft and has asked for advice. English Heritage (an official body) have been consulted. They felt that the dial was in its "proper place" and should not be moved but they, too, felt the risk of theft was present.
The administrator has asked me to advise them and is aware that some cost would accrue in protecting the dial. They wonder, perhaps, whether a copy might be created and what would be involved. Or any other suggestion that would be helpful. Can anyone help? If you would prefer to send me a private message that would be OK.
