The Pinawa Heritage Sundial
Pinawa, Manitoba, Canada
This will be a horizontal sundial approximately 10m square with a 5m gnomon located in the centre of Pinawa near the Winnipeg River. The dial is a project of the Specials Projects Group of the Pinawa Community Development Corporation. It is intended to be both a millennium project and a project to enhance tourism in the area. It will incorporate 12 icons which will depict the history of the region. The sundial is being designed by Carl Sabanski in co-operation with local artists. The dial web site is: http://www.escape.ca/~sabanski

Polar sundial at Blackfriars, London
A sundial commissioned by the Worshipful Company of Tylers and Bricklayers is to be presented to the City of London Corporation, and will be erected later this year on Paul's Walk, which runs along the north bank of the river downstream from Balckfriars Bridge. The sundial plinth is to be made from exactly 2,000 bricks, cantilevered at an angle of 51.5 degrees to the vertical. On the upper surface is a stainless steel gnomon sub-assembly which will indicate the time in 10 minute intervals. The sundial was designed by Piers Nicholson
This sundial has now been built - see our New Dials and London Thames sundial trail pages
