Agree with DennisDart1: there's loads of public land around the tower where you can hear the bell well. However, I especially recommend standing in the large, lovely, green garden facing the clock outside Westminster Hall. The garden is called New Palace Yard and is very easy to find on online maps. You can see the clock face easily and will get the full sound, no problem.
