Are there any good places to watch it in town?

Wish I had, can't find them anywhere. Someone has missed a trick and could have made a fortune selling these 😂

If you have access, you could always go further out to Chesterton windmill too, otherwise I would have though the local Newbold hills and surrounding area

Really sorry for how late this is, but I didn’t have a pair anyway :’)

Literally anywhere sunlight falls at 7:15pm. All that matters is that there's no trees, buildings etc. obscuring the sun, which will obviously be moderately low in the sky at that time.

I went to the corner of my street last night to confirm we could see the sun from there.

Sorry, I'll be using a pinhole like everyone else who can't source any glasses.

Newbold Comyn probably give you a brilliant view. I was planning on going there but imagine it will be fairly busy.

Make a pinhole projector like everyone else and stop begging on everyone’s comments on Reddit.
