Nightwatch on the South Downs - at Bignor

A week or two ago we went along to a BBC-sponsored event at Fontwell Racecourse, & above you can see Karen Whittaker - who is managing a visitor enjoyment project in the South Downs - giving information to one of the way-over-500 visitors to our stand.

Next Tuesday - on the evening of Valentine's day - in collaboration with our friends at Bignor Roman Villa [we're using their excellent facilities & onsite catering] - we are hosting a Nightwatch event between 18:00 and 21:00.

It should a great time under the stars [with the excuse of education] for kids still on their half-term. John Mason from the South Downs Planeterium will be giving a laser-guided tour of the stars, galaxies, & nebulas above.

The previous Sunday 12th February, our colleagues over at Harting Down are hosting a similar event - they'll be selling bacon butties & sausage rolls & hot soup served from a NT marquee on the Down.
