Photograph of Bolton Priory Gardens Published in 1902
In 1902, Alice Morse Earle published a book entitled "Sundials and
Roses of Yesterday". In it she included a photograph of the gardens of
Bolton Priory. At the time, Frederick Allen owned the Priory.
The photograph shows a sundial that formerly stood at The Mount in
Astoria. It appears immediately below, followed by a citation to its
source.

Delights Which Are Here Displayed in Very Truth And Are Moreover Regarded
as Emblems, pg. facing pg. 324 (NY, NY: The MacMillan Co., 1902).
