Our Monthly Meetings
We meet on the first Tuesday of each month from September to April, from 7.30pm to 9.00pm, at Ancrum Village Hall, Ancrum, near Jedburgh in the Scottish Borders.
Our meetings usually begin with a talk on an astronomy-related subject. When the skies are clear, we head outside to observe using the club’s telescopes. On particularly good observing nights, we may shorten the talk to make the most of the conditions.
If the weather is cloudy, we stay indoors for astronomy discussions, questions and a chat over tea or coffee.
We aim to finish promptly at 9.00pm.
Membership and Visitors
Everyone with an interest in astronomy is welcome, whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced observer. You don’t need to own a telescope to come along.
Annual adult membership: £20
Children aged 16 and under: Free when accompanied by an adult.
Visitors: £3 per meeting.
Membership fees help cover the cost of hiring the village hall and the club’s running expenses.
You’re very welcome to attend a meeting as a visitor before deciding whether to join. If you’d like more information, please use our Contact & Join page.
