About the time in Canton
Canton follows the civil time used across its region of United Kingdom; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Sunrise today lands at 06:10 and sunset at 08:20 local time, giving 14h 10m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (51.48, -3.21) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Canton.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Canton day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 08:00–16:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
