The Seaham Time Line Plaque


 

A more detailed view of the Time Line plaque
The Time Line is a series of plaques in the pavement and walls.  They form a trail
from Seaham Hall Beach car park to Seaham Town Centre. The "Time Line also links 
four major sculptures.  The plaques themselves are based on the image of an 
astrolabe. An Astrolabe was a mathematical instrument designed in the sixteenth
century which helped you to find where you were by linking the time of the sun's 
rising or setting and the position of stars, to latitude.
