Hi stonefree, I wonder if you could tell me the date that the photograph of the midday shadow was taken. I am very interested in that part of your investigations.

I wasn't there Andrew but it is worth mentioning that around the summer solstice is when the solar noon is at 13:19 (as mentioned ) these days for that spot . Around the time of the probable build date it would have been earlier and two degrees lower .

Sorry for the delay, been photographing a wedding in London. There have been at least a couple of dates when we photographed the noon notch - I'll check the metadata of the relevant files and get back to you.
