This sundial on the outside of the Tower of London marks time on one of the world’s most famous fortress prisons.
IT has housed many of the British royalty, including Henry VI of England, Edward V of England, and Queen Elizabeth I in 1554, as well as other infamous prisoners, such as Sir Walter Raleigh and Nazi deputy leader Rudolf Hess.
Parts of the tower are over 1,000 years old. Yet this timepiece is dated 1988.
