We have often wondered at how clear the skys are here, and how little light polution we get. So we will be watching the BBC Stargazing Live programmes with interest over the next week or two. I think we also need to take a couple of chairs out an sit in a field and stare up at the skys – I am not too sure what the Alpacas will think though!
If you are visiting Elmfield – you are of course most welcome to set up in the farmyard or fields to watch the stars. Being on theeast coast of the country we geta lot of clear nights. We are also sufficiently far enough away to avoid light polution. If you want to learn more about the stars guests have recommended the South Down Planitarium in Chichester or take the fast train to London (only 35 Mins from Ashford to St Pancras) to visit the Planitarium at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich.
