A Cooke for East Grinstead

 

An educational telescope I don’t know the size of the og was brought from Thomas Cooke & Sons, York by Dr. C H Gatty of Felbridge Park, East Grinstead in 1867. The telescope came with a finder, 3 astronomical eyepieces, solar prism and pancratic eyepiece. The cost of the telescope was £40.

In 1868 a telescope stand with horizontal and vertical motions was purchased.
