Some other unique features of this region: You can see the night sky !

As you can see from the nightime view of the UK below, there are unfortunately very few areas of the UK where the real beauty of the night sky will still be visible to the naked eye.

In the south of the England, one of the remaining naturally dark regions is Herefordshire.

The view of the night sky from the top of Hergest Ridge can be excellent, so bring those binoculars or even a telescope, or just your eyes !
