Tony, About a decade ago I met in Eindhoven a Mr. Ferguson and he showed me three sundials made by his father earlier 1900's. So Chris Lusby is right saying twentieth century.
I have photogaphs of these three dials and I will send them to anyone who ask by e-mail. One example is a steady one with full EoT curves, a second one is hanged with cords but adjustable, the third is like the one in Greenwich but with another foot. Best wishes, Fer.
