A partial lunar eclipse will be visible in Herefordshire this weekend.

The celestial event will take place when a part of the moon enters the Earth's shadow at around 9.15pm on October 28, making it partially invisible.

As Herefordshire is a rural county with relatively low levels of light pollution, locals will have a uniquely clear view of the eclipse.
