Re: Jodrell Bank given World Heritage status
I went there a couple of years with a group of fellow astronomy nuts I was studying with.
Standing next to the Lovell is mind blowing!

Re: Jodrell Bank given World Heritage status
We're at the Bluedot festival there in a couple of weeks time. I'm sure it'll get mentioned once or twice
A photo taken as we were driving away from a recent Lovell Lecture - not the best, because I only had my phone on me...

Re: Jodrell Bank given World Heritage status
I haven't been there for years, but it is well worth a visit. It isn't often that a scientific instrument gains a cultural significance, but this is a worthy exception. My last photo of Jodrell was this one.
