Re: Planet Mercury on view at dusk

I'm quite embarrassed to ask....but what is the star/planet I keep seeing quite low down in the sky, sort of to the West (I live in Bakewell).
It's very bright, looks bigger than regular stars and it's the first thing to start shining in the evening! Is it Mercury?

Sorry if you've already mentioned this to us nytecam!
