Sundial, St. Peters School, York

This sundial is on the wall of the school's chapel. I walk past it regularly on my way into York but this was my first opportunity to take a photo of it without delivery vans trying to get in the picture.

The school is one of the oldest in the world and has had a number of locations in the city before settling in the Clifton area of York. Read more of its history at:

Lovely sundial, Katharine. I always learn so much from the Fisher Family posts. Just for the fun of it, I looked up York on Google Earth. Beautiful place.
