Biographical: Wigglesworth, J.

Scientific paper

It may come as something of a surprise to many readers of this Journal to learn that there was once - albeit briefly - a major astronomical establishment in the town of Scarborough, queen of Yorkshire's many fine seaside resorts. Moreover, the legacy of this brief flowering of astronomy in the bracing North Sea air (or German Ocean, at it would have been at the time) is set in perpetuity in the form of contributions made to the famous New General Catalogue of deep sky objects.
