Elizabeth Ruth Belville receives a timekeeping certificate from an official at the Royal Greenwich Observatory, circa 1903. Once Belville has the accuracy of her watch, which she calls 'Arnold', confirmed in this way, her task is to 'take the time' round businesses in the West End and City of London. Belville's work was the means of ensuring standard time in the city before the advent of radio.
