Which key is my clarinet in?

Author: David Young

I have an old Hawkes and Son clarinet with the simple system fingering. Nearly two decades ago, the last time it was played, I was told which key it was in but I can't remember whether it was A or Ab (I know it's not Bb).

How do I find out? I have a piano and the fingering chart for simple-system clarinets. Is there a straightforward way to tell using these and the clarinet?
