THE Twice Brewed Inn’s stargazing team is preparing to bring the wonder of the night sky to online audiences during February half term as part of the Northumberland Dark Skies Festival. The Northumberland observatory, which is attached to The Twice Brewed Inn, on Hadrian’s Wall, is taking part in the inaugural Festival, which is inviting people to log on for a series of virtual-only events, due to the current Covid-19 restrictions. Wil Cheung, who heads up The Twice Brewed’s astronomy team, has scheduled a number of special Facebook live sessions designed to bring the wonders of the night sky to life for stargazers of all ages and abilities during the school holidays.
