Cranborne Chase AONB becomes the 14th dark sky reserve in the world

Cranborne Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) is only the 14th dark sky reserve in the world.

The certification is awarded by the International Dark-Sky Association to areas which offer "exceptional starry skies". It has taken Cranborne Chase AONB 10 years to achieve and now there are controls in place to prevent future light pollution.

Steve Harris spoke to Amanda Scott, Dark Sky Advisor for the Cranborne Chase AONB.
