Sandringham Hall, Norfolk, the hunting-box of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, 1862. View of Sandringham House. The Sandringham estate has been used for royal shooting parties. King Edward VII, who was fond of hunting, ordered that the clocks be set half an hour earlier than GMT in order to increase the amount of daylight there was for hunting. This came to be known as Sandringham time and was kept from 1901 to 1936, when the clocks were returned to GMT time by King Edward VIII. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.
