Location of sundial uncertain at time of upgrade.

Somerville noted in 1985 that the sundial originally from Robroyston House had been in the Kelvingrove Museum, but was currently in store in the Transport Museum, Albert Drive (MS5741/7/20). However, the sundial photographed and described by Somerville (1985), and described by Stevenson (1934) bears the date 1679 and not 1623 as noted in the OS name book. (A Cassells, 10 December 2009).
