Eclipse: How and when to see partial solar eclipse in UK – and where ‘ring of fire’ will be visible |

Skygazers will be treated to a partial solar eclipse over the UK in the morning – as the moon passes between the earth and the sun.

Just after 10am, it will be possible too see nearly a third of the sun being blocked out by the moon in what is known as an annular eclipse.

These only occur every one or two years, when the sun and moon are exactly in line with the earth but the apparent size of the moon is smaller than that of the sun.
