There is a rhyming couplet Apology for Summer Time signed "J.W.R." affixed to the body of the clock:
"My hands you may retard or may advance my heart beats true for England as for France."

However this policy was either changed, or never implemented, since recently it is on GMT in winter and BST in summer like all other clocks in Great Britain."
