Bristol is located at 51.45°N, 2.59°W. Its latitude determines how dramatically daylight hours change through the year.
The city uses the Europe/London timezone (GMT+1). It observes Daylight Saving Time, so sunrise and sunset times shift by one hour in spring and autumn.
Solar noon — the moment the sun reaches its highest point in the sky — occurs when the sun crosses the local meridian. In Bristol this falls around 13:09 in mid-summer and 12:00 in December, reflecting UTC offset and any DST adjustments.
