This live stream looks out over the quarry near Embleton, a small village on the Northumberland coast of north-east England. It is one of several cameras in the county that people use to check the sky and the coast. The page also shows local time and current weather, so you can judge conditions before you watch.
About Embleton and the coast
Embleton sits a short walk inland from the North Sea, in a part of England known for wide sandy beaches, dunes and castles standing on open headlands. The village has a green and a church with a long history, and the surrounding land is mostly farmland with old stone walls. The quarry is one of the working or former stone sites that mark the local landscape. Northumberland as a whole is one of the least densely populated counties in England, which means dark skies and open horizons are common.
What you can watch and when
The camera is marketed as an aurora camera, so the most interesting moments are usually after dark, on clear nights when solar activity is high. Depending on the view, you may also see changing light over the quarry walls, weather moving in off the coast and the seasonal shift from long summer evenings to short winter days. Pale green or red bands in the sky are most likely in autumn, winter and early spring, when nights are long.
Practical information and nearby cameras
The UK has a mild, changeable climate, so expect wind and rain at any time of year, and bring layers if you plan to visit in person. Spring and early autumn are often the most pleasant months on the coast. Nearby, you can compare this view with the Bamburgh Budle Bay meteor camera, the Cresswell aurora camera and the live view from Berwick-upon-Tweed, all within about thirty kilometres.
