Where can I fly my drone in the UK and get £5,000,000 Public Liability Insurance cover? Welcome to Drone Scene!

Church in the sea on Anglesey. A very strange place for a church on a tiny island not much bigger than the church itself. Quite easy to find, but limited parking as its down a farm lane once off the main roads. Different view depending on whether the tide is in or out. Also right next door to Anglesey race circuit which is also worth a visit for car and bike fans. Its also where they film a lot of '5th Gear' track action amongst other things.

Chatsworth House is one of England's most famous stately homes, set in the heart of the Peak District in Derbyshire, England. Known for its grand architecture, extensive art collection, and beautifully landscaped gardens, it has been the seat of the Cavendish family (the Dukes of Devonshire) since 1549. The current grade I listed building has been chosen several times as Britain's favourite country house and in 2011it underwent a 2 year £14-million restoration. The owner is the Chatsworth House Trust, an independent charitable foundation formed in 1981, on behalf of the Cavendish family.

I parked some distance from the estate as I was on a circular walk, but would suggest Calton Lees carpark (about £5 fee) is only a short walk away along the Derwent Valley Way public path. I've marked my TOAL points and had a spotter or two assisting.

The house, is an awesome place to visit with all the usual amenities and I can't recommend it enough!

I don't thing recreational flying is high on the Trust's list of visitors things to do (or not in it at all) so be aware and fly cautiously.

A great location to capture the surrounding area and hovercraft that crosses the Solent over to Southsea.

Parking available on site at the Quays Carpark if you happen to live on the Island or over on holiday etc otherwise it’s an expensive crossing with a car and public transport is great on the Isle.

Increased bird migration activity this time of year so just be watchful but other than that, a great spot and not bothered by anyone.

Klondyke Mill in the Gwydir Forest above Llanrwst was constructed in 1900 to process ore from the nearby Pandora Lead Mine.

The mill was bought by John Aspinall in 1918 and formed the centrepiece of an elaborate scam involving a fake silver mine in the adjacent tunnels.

The park adjacent to the minster is owned by the minster and they have signs saying no drones. I flew from the street by the front entrance and was able to fly and maintain VLOS. the parking marker I have placed
on Bootham Row is free before 8am which is handy as it's a 3 minute walk if that to the Minster. I flew early in the morning (7.15) hoping to get sunrise. (the weather had other ideas) there are lots of carparks in the city, but be aware this is a tourist area and during the day gets very busy.

Visible from the road the Towerhouse is an interesting restored building, and one that offers a friendly welcome. Worth the entrance fee to explore on a self-guided tour, and a chance to walk the battlements - ask nicely and you will also easily get permission to fly your drone from the car park, some stunning views.

Not in an FRZ, but near to a Military Low Fly Zone, so keep you whits about you, we had an A400M come over at about 500ft just as I was landing...

Stunning scenery, lots of places to park and access the top, however to note it is a good 400m climb from the bottom car park to the top, although you can fly it from the car park (ringo app if you are cashless, although they do have pay machines too)

When the grandiose vision of India Mill first formed in the mind of Eccles Shorrock, he could have had no idea that world events were conspiring to frustrate his ambitions.

It has been described as the most important textile building in North East Lancashire and was constructed during the period 1859 to 1871. The actual building was completed by the mid 1860s, but all the machinery was not installed until 1871.

Civil war in America was Eccles Shorrock's downfall. A blockade of the Southern states meant no cotton coming out, which meant no work in Lancashire, which meant famine.

Eccles Shorrock was punished for his grand ambitions, he went bankrupt and died of ill health in Edinburgh. India Mills continued as the Darwen Cotton Spinning Company Ltd. until 1933 when it became India Mills (Darwen Ltd.). In 1954 William Baird acquired the company and in 1974 Carrington Viyella took it over. The mill closed in 1991.

Situated on a promontory above Yarow Water the ruined powerhouse dominates the landscape, and when surrounded by autumnal colours in the trees it makes a stunning subject for a short video. On the day we arrived access was ok, however it is in the grounds of the Bowhill Estate, which has an entry fee during the on season.
Tere is no access to the Castle buildings themselves.

We were able to drive to the castle easily and park nearby to fly the drone quite easily, and VLOS is easy to maintain in most directions, although watch out for the trees behind the Castle itself.

Although not in an FRZ do be aware that the area is used for low flying by the RAF, as evidenced by an extremely low pass by 2 Typhoon while we were at the castle.
