We found an hour to have a wander around the Mullard Observatory on the way home from Duxford today.

A great place to explore if you are in the area.

Some info on the place... Www.mrao.cam.ac.uk

It looks very impressive Andy, thanks for sharing.

fascinating, love the aerial array, yet thinking of all the copper ground-planes underground that would weigh in nicely

That`s the demolition side of me

Ken.

Yes, but can it pick up Channel 5?

Surprisingly unvandalised! No graffiti or arson attempts, very eerie as normally you get a lot of mess at abandoned places.

Wow! that is impressive, I'm sure that has been on some BBC kids movie back in the day.
