You are welcome to visit the Brough Observatory on one of our usual 'open nights' - every Friday, from around 8pm, and we can usually arrange a visit at a quieter time to suit you if you would like to come and have look around. The kettle will be on …or even get a beer in the club house.
You can park down by the dome - Drive down Skillings Lane and Prescot Avenue (which is a track rather than a road!) is just before the parade of shops... if you pass Sainsbury's on your left you have missed the turn! You can drive through the car park next to the Blackburn Leisure Club and out of the other end, down the side of the club and along the path at the side of the side of the playing fields - you'll see the observatory at the far end of the field. If you keep one wheel on the path you will avoid the football playing surfaces. See the picture on the right.
