I vaguely recall it was moved to its present position sometime after 1980 having neen notified as 'withdrawn' for a short time. At one time the coding was 'EPS' not EPM' and I suspect (stand to be corrected) may have been changed when it moved.
The co-ordinates quoted above seem to be OSGB 36 notation and not WGS 84 but I'm sure that change didn't happen until late '90s.
