It was trashed, I forget the exact year in which this happened, but yes, I was a primary school sprog at the time and quite shocked, I tell you, that anyone could wreak such havoc (the sundial pedestal was cleft in twain, in addition to much of the rest of the gardens having been trashed). Whilst looking (unsuccessfully) for interweb reference to this incident I stumbled across the fact that towards the end of 2011 thieves had pinched the (presumably) bronze dial for its scrap value. Meh!
I've since talked to my Mum and my Sis about this incident.
Both of them remember it with varying degrees of accuracy.
Neither remember me being involved.
I was about 9 ffs :)
