"As a result of the successful tests with the Claustral Pendulum, Bidston acquired a Graf-Askania vertical pendulum of its own, and installed it after modification." [1]

"In 1900 Biddston obtained its own Milne-Seismograph. and tables of its observations were published from 1901." [1]

The Dock Board felt that "meteorological observations could be taken with equal accuracy elsewhere" and the Dock Board's "interest in th unfelt tremors of the earth was not immediate".[1]

As a result of the successful tests with the Claustral Pendulum, Bidston acquired a Graf-Askania vertical pendulum of its own, and installed it after modification.[1]

Reading and changing the seismographic records was part of the daily routine in Bidston Observatory.[1]
