Perranzabuloe Millennium Sundial

Highlight • Monument

Officially called the Perranzabuloe Millennium Sundial, but also known as the Droskyn Sundial, this incredible art installation was created by artist Stuart Thorn. It shows Cornish time, rather than GMT, so midday here is actually at 11:48am GMT.
