Cargill's Leap added to Rivers and Canals in Scotland by AlbionDrones on 30/04/2024

The location of a 17thC Covenanter's escape from the redcoats, a rocky rapids in the River Ericht near Blairgowrie in Perthshire.

Park at the car park and then walk down the steps, and fly from the bridge - currently closed due to storm damage - or cross and walk further along the opposite bank.

Beware the trees and the double cable crossing the river upstream from the passenger footbridge.

Stoney Littleton Long Barrow, Bath and North East Somerset (By gasbag43)

Stoney Littleton Long Barrow is one of the country’s finest accessible examples of a Neolithic chambered tomb. Dating from about 3500 BC, it is 30 metres long and has multiple burial chambers open to view.

The barrow is also known as the Bath Tumulus and the Wellow Tumulus and is located near the village of Wellow in Somerset. It is an example of the Cotswold-Severn Group and was scheduled as an ancient monument in 1882.

Excavations in the early 19th century uncovered bones from several individuals. The stone structure is about 30 metres (98 ft) in length and contains a 12.8-metre (42 ft) long gallery with three pairs of side chambers and an end chamber.

The central passage and entrance are roughly aligned towards the midwinter sunrise.

Great Pulteney Street, Bath and North East Somerset (By ColinPeachey)

At over 1,000 feet long and 100 feet wide, Great Pulteney Street is the widest, grandest thoroughfare in Bath, flanked on either side by beautiful Georgian properties.

One of the longest streets, it is also home to the shortest street in the city. A side street just off Great Pulteney Street, Sunderland Street, has only one address!

This beautiful street, completed in 1789, was commissioned by Sir William Pulteney and designed by Georgian architect Thomas Baldwin.

At one end you will find Laura Place, with its pretty fountain at the centre. At the other end stands the magnificent Holburne Museum, the city's first public art gallery, and Sydney Gardens, the only remaining eighteenth-century pleasure gardens in the country.

Bayard's Cove Fort (By Grazuncle)

This Tudor fort, built by the borough of Dartmouth between 1522 and 1536, contained heavy guns to protect the prosperous harbour town from attack.

It was the last line of defence against enemy ships that had eluded Dartmouth and Kingswear castles and the iron chain stretched across the Dart estuary between them.

Occupying a terrace cut from the rocky river bank, Bayard’s Cove Fort is picturesquely sited at the entrance to Dartmouth harbour.

Drakestone Point, Stroud (By gasbag43)

Drakestone Point is part of Stinchcombe Hill, a ridge overlooking the Severn Vale and the Cotswold escarpment.

It's a popular spot for walkers, with the Cotswold Way passing through, and there are various paths leading up from Dursley and from a car park near the golf course (that's where I parked and then walked in)

The point itself is a triangular area of grassland, with an oak tree and a memorial bench at the tip, offering stunning views.

There's some evidence of earthworks at the site, possibly indicating an Iron Age beacon or a signaling post. It has also been suggested, though not definitively proven, that it might have been a castle site in the past.

The main draw of Drakestone Point is the extensive views it offers over the Severn Vale, towards the Forest of Dean and the Welsh hills. Its summit reaches a height of 220m, add on 120 metres of drone altitude and the view from above of the valley below is the main attraction of this recommended location.

Parking was by the golf club house, TOAL from the public footpath approaching the viewpoint (The Cotswold Way)
