I think we decided that was the case earlier. A look at Brick Lane market
certainly confirms it!

What sort of date range are we down to? If it's only a few weeks across,
then knowing that it was a sunday morning when the tide was flooding would
probably pin it down. Working out the exact time is going to be trickier,
although once we have the date, i think we could do it with one of the
fortuitous sundial objects.

That said, we still don't have a really good one - something really tall
and thin, whose shadow is being cast onto flat, level ground. Does anyone
have an air navigation map of London? That would list masts, which might
do the job.
