A SUNDIAL has been presented to Salisbury as a millennium gift from the city's Universities of the Third Age.
It will hang on the upper storey wall of Sampsons Solicitors in St Thomas's Square so that it is also visible from High Street.
A 50-strong crowd gathered to see the sundial unveiled by Deputy Mayor Ian Tomes. He said: "It is always encouraging to see so many who love and care about Salisbury."
The three local U3As - Salisbury and district, Sarum and Spire - have been working together on the project for a year after it was thought up by one of their members, Phyllis Babb.
Under the sundial are the words: 'Time speeds up until it is nothing, therefore use it before it is gone', chosen by U3A member Anne Boutell.
Christine Dickson, chairman of the Salisbury and district group, said: "We hope it will give pleasure and information to the people of Salisbury for many years to come."
