The White Peak Astronomical Observing Group ( WPAOG ) observe from the grounds of Hopton hall near Carsington. The skies
are very dark and we enjoy an excellent view.There is access to mains electricity to power all the usual accessories, laptops etc for observing or imaging. The group owns several telescopes, including 12” and 16” Dobsonians and a 14” Celestron CGE computerised GOTO as well as bi

noculars. Members often bring their own telescopes and visitors are welcome to bring their own as well. The group specialises in observing as well as imaging. There are members with all levels of experience keen to offer help and advice. Visitors
with all levels of knowledge are most welcome. The start time is 19:30 and if the skies are favourable we will be observing , if the skies are clouded over we will
hold a short talk. We ask for a contribution of £1 to cover tea, coffee and biscuits and membership is £20 a year. Visitors are welcome to come and “try us out” a
couple of times before needing to join.
