Members of the Wealden Astronomers meet on the last Friday of each month (with some exceptions) at the spectacular Herstmonceux Castle.
On clear nights, if no other event is on the schedule, the group will also take advantage of the excellent observing and imaging opportunities that the dark location offers, away from light pollution sources.
Please get in touch with the Wealden Astronomers if you would like to join them.
