Thanks for the comments. So I gather something in £150-200 range would already by pretty decent. A lot of my garden is shielded from direct street lights etc. so as the sky actually looks dark occasionally, it'd be nice to see a bit more of it.

I’ve got a set of Nikon 8x42’s and they’re great. Cost about £100.

Use them mostly for bird spotting though, not star gazing.

It’s a dangerous game though, because there is always the next best pair....

Ha, yeah I'm trying not to do the man math thing. Pentax 10x50 for £150 look well regarded, but alternativaly I'm still considering something wider for more generic use.
