Regular Society Meetings

We meet every month, usually on the fourth Thursday of the month, (the December meeting will generally be on the third Thursday). Meetings start no earlier than 7:30pm and end before 10:00pm.

There's plenty of advice especially if you're buying that all important first telescope!

This car park will remain open until after our meeting.
