To commemorate the job of this master clock and Langford’s efforts, Bristol’s smallest plaque, no larger than a 30cm ruler, can be found directly underneath the clock, now in a somewhat sorry state outside Costa on College Green.
IIRC the MSF signal only flags that there's about to be a DST change for the hour before the change, so it's entirely possible for the clock to miss it if the signal's iffy. Which is has been ever since they moved the transmitter to Cumbria.
