There is indeed.

The Bookshop in the Duomo sells a very nice booklet
`La Meridiana Solare del Duomo di Milano'.  This gives
a good deal of basic information and many measurements
though, strangely, not the diameter of the hole.  That
and other things I had to ask Gianni Ferrari about :-)

This booklet is in Italian of course.  I am sending you
separately some private notes about this meridiana which
I wrote a couple of years ago.  These are in English and
are quite technical but are not really fit for general
consumption.
