This sounds great
A new £5million planetarium and science discovery centre in Ashfield which could help “change the life chances” of local people for years to come has been given the go-ahead. Ashfield District Council’s planning committee has unanimously backed the state-of-the-art plan for the Sherwood Observatory in Coxmoor Road, Sutton.
The planetarium, which will be ten metres wide, would sit on the reservoir’s roof and could accommodate 60 people per show. Project manager Steve Wallace previously said: “The centre will create a unique visitor attraction and raise the profile of the Ashfield area significantly. The plans will also bring improvements to the site, with the planetarium operating as a separate building from the existing observatory, which opened in 1986.
