Astronomy Evening at Bore Place: Learn the Constellations
Thursday 13th March 2025 from 19:30pm to 21:00pm
Bore Place Country House and Outdoor Education Centre
Chiddingstone, Edenbridge, Kent, TN8 7AR, South East
Enjoy the starlit skies above Bore Place and be led through the constellations by local astronomy group, the Edenbridge and District Astronomers.
Hear the stories ancient astronomers told as they tried to understand the heavens, named the stars, and imagined the constellations.
If the weather is cloudy, we will have illustrated talks indoors about the constellations so you’re prepped to go star spotting on the next clear night.
The walk will be over uneven ground so may not be suitable for those with limited mobility or wheelchair users. Please enquire if you would like further information.
