It's funny that you say that; I literally had that conversation with my wife last night....
My thinking is that Solar Noon position of a stick as described in other threads regarding finding true South would, provide the Midday (or near enough) position for a sun dial. The Northern position would be the 6....
When laying the concrete, it occurred to me that if I put a piece of conduit or dowl in the centre as part of the form work then work out solar noon, paint a lovely sundial pattern & voila... Sundial by day, Astro pad by night & everybody's happy...
