Thanks all. After seeing how wonderfully dark the sky is there, back in Newcastle it looks just awful, I can barely see the LMC yet at Gloucester the LMC was so bright against a black background, and the orion arm a thick milky band across the sky.

My Aunts place in Gloucester has high fences around the yard keeping out stray light, the house blocks some of the south but overall I have a pretty good access to the sky, will take imaging gear next time I go.
