{Play}Stargazing at Sheepdrove

We have teamed up with our partners at the North Wessex Downs AONB and the Blackett Observatory astronomers to bring you an exciting evening of stargazing at Sheepdrove Organic Farm on 17 November.

This is a rare opportunity to join the astronomers from The Blackett Observatory, Marlborough College, who will guide you across the night sky, imparting knowledge and inspiring awe. Suitable for everyone aged 8 and upwards.

The Town Council partnered with NWD AONB, Marlborough College and many others in October 2021 to host a Marlborough-wide Dark Skies Festival. There have been lots of smaller, interesting dark skies events since then. Follow Marlborough Dark Skies Fest on Facebook for the latest news @marlboroughdarkskiesfest.
