About Moth Night

From around dusk see how the moth lights are set up and experience the first visitors of the night to the lights. As well as helping to identify any moths that are seen, there will be an opportunity to experience other nocturnal life in the grounds especially looking out, or listening, for owls and bats.

The moths retained in the light lures will be examined in the morning and recorded on the Hampshire Biodiversity Information Centre database to support scientific research into insect ecology. If you wish to join in and help identify and record in the morning, please indicate this. These events will include outdoor activity including a short walk in the relative dark so please come dressed appropriately for the weather and time of year with sturdy footwear and bring a torch. A warm drink and biscuits will be available during the evening.

Tickets: £10 adults and £7 for 18 and under.
