Along the A838 (NC500), between Tongue and Durness, the long road snakes around Loch Eriboll, and at the Choraidh Tearoom there lies a small Highland Stream, Allt an Lagain.

With far-reaching views across Loch Eriboll this small river drops from the higher moors down a series of exposed rock runs and small waterfalls past clumps of bright purple heather flowers - and through one of the first privately built and run Hydro-Electric systems. The water is stained brown with Peat, and some of the exposed rocks are thusly stained red.

Perhaps not as stunning as a large waterfall, but it has its own quiet peace and beauty, and although the wind was on the limits of what was possible on our visit, we managed to make a quick flight up the river to capture this short video, I hope it is enjoyed...

Car Parking available at roadside or in the cafe Car Park. Fly up the hill, watch out for Golden Eagles and Peregrine Falcon though, both had a look at the drone on this flight!

Parking available on the B6011 via a layby between Linby and Papplewick villages. A small walk down a trail gets you to this historic church.

The church is thought to have been built in the 12th century. In the grant made by Henry II to Newstead Priory, part of the endowment was “The Town of Papplewick with the Church of the same name and the Mill.”. Legend has it that Alan A’Dale, one of Robin Hood’s men, was married here. The present tower dates from the 14th century. The nave and chancel were rebuilt by the Right Hon. Frederick Montagu in 1795 (after he had rebuilt the Hall.). In 1855, Papplewick was united with Linby. The Parish is now called ‘the Parish of St. Michael, Linby cum St. James, Papplewick‘. The building was further restored and repaired in 1938 in memory of John Chadburn, son of Mr. C. W. Chadburn who lived in the Parish.

Built between 1873 and 1876 the clocktower was formerly the offices of the Bestwood Coal and Iron Company. Bestwood Iron Works was opened to the west of the colliery in 1881 and remained in use until 1928. The colliery was nationalised in 1947 and later closed in 1967. The clocktower is Grade II listed and remained the offices of the National Coal Board until 1985. After a period of being vacant, the building transferred into private ownership and resumed its use as offices in 2004.

Parking and TOAL was on the adjacent public highway.

The old winding house and wheels, last part of Bestwood colliery remaining, now been transformed into a country park. Has its own car park or just park considerately on road outside. TOAL on footpath just outside entrance. Can get very busy especially at weekends or event days so bit of planning and consideration needed.

At the furthest reaches of the Scottish North Coast, just before you reach Durness are some amazing beaches, turquoise waters and golden sands, with rocky headlands and sea stacks, beautiful views, but also a place that includes a shameful history ignored by many...

Ceannabeinne was a thriving township until the landowner decided that sheep were more profitable than people and the village was 'cleared' - the tenant farmers and crofters turned off their land, left homeless and without a means to support themselves, with not a thought to their plight by those whose only motive was profit...

Parking is a roadside layby, big enough for 6 or 7 cars, then the walk over uneven and wet ground to the boardwalk down to the area of the township. Ruins of a couple of cottages can be seen, but nothing spectacular, however the views and beaches below are excellent...

Very windy, on the day we visited...

Moira Furnace is a nineteenth-century iron-making blast furnace located in Moira, Leicestershire, on the banks of the Ashby-de-la-Zouch Canal.

Vist https://www.moirafurnace.org/ for more info on this building and the events that take place here during the year.

Unsure of any drone policy by the museum and country park but like most of these types of venus I would say they are not keen on your flying from their land. There is a sports field with access to the canal path just across from the building and this is where I flew from.

You can park on site but I recommend you check the what is on at the site on the day you wish to fly or the closing times so your not locked in. There is loads of parking around the area.
