Where and When We Meet

Where

Our main base is The Hub terrace in Regent's Park, London https://www.royalparks.org.uk/visit/parks/regents-park-primrose-hill/hub

Getting There:

By Car: you can park for free after 18:30 on the Outer Circle by the Wellcome Building on the north of the park NW8 7LS.

By Bus: Route 274 passes close to the park.

By Tube: Baker Street (15 mins walk) and Camden Town (20 mins walk)

Enter the park through the Monkey Gate at the north of the park. It is the gate closest to London Zoo, the red pin in the image below. Take the centre of three paths to walk 100m to the elevated terrace of the Hub. It is accessible by wheelchair users. If it is your visit make yourself known and you will be welcomed by one of the organisers.

If, in the dark, you are hesitant in entering the park alone please let an organiser know and one will come to the gate to accompany you to the Hub.

When

We meet on monthly basis at the Hub and for our annual solar picnic SUNday we meet on a SUNday in June on Hanover Green, Regents Park

At the Hub we meet anytime from 18:30. We must leave by 22:30, exiting the park only through the Monkey Gate

Other Matters

All our meetings are free to attend. Unlike other astronomical societies we did not charge an annual membership fee. However we do face monthly charges for renting the Hub terrace from the Royal Parks and an annual Public Liability Insurance premium and website maintenance costs so the BSIA organisers do ask for a small donation if you can spare something. All monies donated go towards ensuring the Irregulars are able to meet in the future. See below for the form to donate.
