An article on light pollution.
In this image, the Kielder region does indeed seem to be an oasis of darkness. I had assumed the North East, Tyneside conurbation would have been a contaminant but perhaps the intervening hills block the light. From what I have read, city light sources can affect dark skies up to 200 miles away.
