Text Appearing Before Image:
deen, appears to have been modelled somewhat after the styleof these two dials at Ellon and Pitmedden, indicative of a decided localpeculiarity, also visible in the Rubislaw Den dial. The Aberdeendial is dated 1707, but we incline to the opinion that the Ellon andPitmedden dials belong to the previous century. The appearance ofthe Ellon dial is greatly enhanced by the fine and wide moulded stepson which it stands. The steps, each 7 inches high, measure respectively8 feet square, 7 feet square, and 4 feet square. The dial itself to top of ballis 8 feet 6 inches high. The other dial in Ellon garden resembles the dial * We are indebted to Mr. Arthur Gordon, Ellon Castle, for calling our attentionto this dial, and for having it photographed for our use; as also to Mr. Robert Keith,jun., Aberdeen, for assistance regarding it and the dial at Pitmedden. Fig. 1617.—Invermay. SUNDIALS 446 — SUNDIALS at Forgue (Fig. 1664) so closely as to suggest that they are the work ofthe same hand. ,--.
