Default Herstmonceux Query

I would be interested to know if anyone has knowledge as to the
location of Herstmonceux AWS Weather Station or know anything about
its history?

Hi, Richard,
Has it moved? I'm sure it was within the grounds of the observatory when I
visited, to the left of the main entrance road. That was around the year
2000.
Best wishes,
Ken


Many thanks Ian/Ken - Found it on Google maps - Herstmonceux West End
- no where near the observatory centre. It appears to be on the edge
of the village - I cannot understand why it is not within the grounds
of the Herstmonceux Observatory? I would have thought it would have
been a more open site and more secure, despite the fence. Probably
down to cost

Regards

Richard
