Save Our War Memorial Park Back to ‘Zion Sundial with a View’

The Sundial was installed in Oct’ 54. It was damaged in Feb’ 55 and was later repaired.
Seen in opening day photos, it was originally set on a flat square platform several yards further along the front entrance footpath where bollards are now. Its pedestal appeared to be black then. The bronze sundial disk, missing since approximately the late 90’s, read upon it something like:
In Gratitude for the Service of the Armed Forces of WW2 from the Sisters of Zion.
The pedestal is now Grey. It was moved to its present position around the turn of the century, perhaps as it was then in the shade from mature adjacent trees. But it was set crooked with cement smothering its base. It is still without its sundial. The platform it had originally stood on was also removed in recent years.

A replacement sundial is required and the pedestal needs to be reset straight.
Does anyone have the sundial? Can a record of the original inscription be found?
Does anyone have a photo of the dial?
