How Burton upon Trent's prayer times are worked out
From Burton upon Trent, the Qibla is 119° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 4,954 km (3,078 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Burton upon Trent's own coordinates (52.81°N, 1.64°W), not a national average. That is why Burton upon Trent's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.
One local quirk shapes the Burton upon Trent timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Burton upon Trent lies well west inside its London time zone. So the sun peaks about 15 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:05 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 17h 54m near June down to 9h 45m in December.
The Fajr and Isha angles for Burton upon Trent come from the Muslim World League. The Muslim World League method sets Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon, and Isha at 17°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. We also publish times for nearby Derby, Tamworth and Cannock. Each is only a few minutes off Burton upon Trent's clock.

Two Asr times are in use in the United Kingdom
UK mosques are split. Deobandi and Barelvi mosques, the majority, follow the Hanafi Asr. Arab, Salafi and African mosques use the earlier standard time. Many UK timetables print both. The time shown above for Burton upon Trent is the standard reckoning — 4:37 PM. The Hanafi time today is 5:31 PM. Follow whichever your mosque announces; you can make Hanafi the default in the settings above.
Who sets prayer times in the UK
There is no national authority: every British mosque sets its own timetable. In London most of the major mosques follow the Unified Prayer Timetable for London. They agreed it among themselves and adopted it from Ramadan 2011. Users include the Islamic Cultural Centre and London Central Mosque, the East London Mosque and Muslim Welfare House. Outside London, mosques generally use Muslim World League angles (Fajr 18°, Isha 17°), the basis this page applies. This is why two mosques a few miles apart can print different times. It is worth checking your own mosque's timetable, rather than assuming a single national answer exists.
The Asr split in British mosques
Britain's Asr time depends on which mosque you attend, and the split is real. The most recent mosque census counted nearly 2,000 active British masjids. Deobandi and Barelvi mosques are both Hanafi, and together around two thirds of that total. They call Asr on the second-shadow rule. Arab, Salafi, Somali and West African mosques use the earlier standard time. Many British timetables print both columns for exactly this reason, and so does this page. Three landmarks stand out. London Central Mosque in Regent's Park was designed by Sir Frederick Gibberd and completed in 1977. The East London Mosque in Whitechapel opened its current building in 1985, and was among the first in Britain permitted to broadcast the adhan aloud. Birmingham Central Mosque was built in 1969.
