Episode 8: The Astronomy Centre

The Astronomy Centre: If you head east out of the Lancashire town
of Bacup along the A681 towards the Yorkshire town of Todmorden, a
couple of miles up a snaking undulating road, nestled amongst the
green hills, wild flowers and the sheep you see on your left two
large astronomical domes. This is the home of the Astronomy Centre.
Founded by Peter Drew, it is the largest dedicated resource for the
amatuer astronomers in the country. A not for profit venture, the
astronomy centre has been developed and maintained by a diverse
team of skilled, dedicated and industrious volunteers.
