Nine Creatives @ 78 Derngate

A national treasure, an icon of Northamptonshire and a building of international significance presents our visitors with the wow factor! The church has seen more than 150,000 visitors from around the world since 1982. Recent conservation of stained-glass windows and brilliant updating of the military ‘Soldiers Chapel’.

We are a society in Northamptonshire dating back to 1876. We encompass many subjects including astronomy, geology, microscopy, meteorology, photography and many others. See displays and demonstrations by many of our sections in our purpose-built rooms. Bring a plant or item to look at under a microscope, look at the sun through our purpose made solarscope (weather dependent!). Bring a rock or fossil to be identified and look at our extensive collections.
