Tonight all across the UK, we'll be able to witness the the biggest, brightest full supermoon of the century, as the moon reaches it's closest point to Earth since 1948. To make the most of the phenomenon, astronomers have advised to get out of the city and into areas with wide open spaces and minimal artificial light. Here are some of the county's best viewpoints.
