Old Palace Yard and the Golden Jubilee Sundial
The restoration of Old Palace Yard was completed in October 2002 with the installation of the analematic sundial to mark the Queen's Golden Jubilee. Old Palace Yard is now paved in granite to remind passers-by that it is part of the Palace of Westminster. Gas lanterns define the square, street clutter has been reduced, and more space has been made available for pedestrians and visitors.
Sundial Type: Analemmatic - Vertical gnomon with elliptical dial
