About the time in East Sussex
The zone identifier Europe/London is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Europe/London keeps pointing at London time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sunrise today lands at 05:54 and sunset at 08:09 local time, giving 14h 14m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (50.92, 0.33) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in East Sussex.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal East Sussex 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.
