The future of the historic observatory at Herstmonceux is uncertain due to Queen’s University, who also own Herstmonceux Castle, not renewing the Science Centre’s lease. We are campaigning to keep Observatory Science Centre at the observatory and ensure future public access. Not affiliated with Science Projects.
