c10.30

An examination of the Daniells' drawings and recent photographs (see figures 43-46) shows that only minor alterations have been made during the last hundred years. There is a slight difference in the entrance to the gnomon steps; in the old drawings is shown a set of subsidiary steps to the right of the main steps on the gnomon; and there was formerly no dial at the top of the gnomon.
