The Norman Lockyer Observatory is both a historical observatory and home to an active amateur astronomical society. It is a centre for amateur astronomy, meteorology, radio astronomy, and the promotion of science education.
The observatory is regularly open to the public, staffed entirely by volunteers, and each summer hosts the South West Astronomy Fair.
We have a Youtube channel where videos and live events are available.
Latest News:
Please note that the observatory is currently closed, as it is not possible to safely distance visitors in the enclosed spaces of our domes and planetarium.
