I parked just up from the smugglers inn pub free on the road, but the car park is aimed at the pubs customers so is pricey however the pub is a great place for food and drink as well!TOAL from crown shore and normally quiet anytime of the day but always great for some sunset shots.Cruise liners there because of COVID,

The café is part of what was a gym on the shore near Hest Bank, the rest of the place is (was?) Hydropaws. There's a car park but that's only open when the café's open however there's plenty of parking on the promenade close by. I've already added a spot nearby but this is worthy of it's own spot because it's a damned good café and you can sit on the edge of the car park wall just in front of it, handy if you're with someone and they're of the what-am-i-going-to-do-while-you-fly attitude.Entrance from the prom - https://w3w.co/fixture.protester.doingCar Park - https://w3w.co/loudness.corporate.mimic

With this being a EH site I waited until after closing time and took off from a quiet country lane layby. Just be mindful of any walkers/traffic using the lane. That said, I was in the air for over 20mins and no one passed by. You can get some stunning shots of the castle and river nearby.

Parked in a lay-by next to a farm gate, was there for around a total of one hour. Saw about 3 people and 1 vehicle. Flight straight across field to the wind turbine with a quarry either side. Wish I’d have investigated more whilst flying but wind was picking up. Edge of Kings Wood, which I think is a nature reserve but you can still see from this location when up. Private farmland but no barns or working field around to ask full permission. TOAL is from public highway.

These colourful lime beds (official name Griffiths Road Lagoons) deal with waste product from the nearby Tara Chemicals soda ash plant.I used two take-off points. There is a car park at the end of Farm Road in Rudheath, CW9 7DY. Footpaths lead northwest and then northeast to ///care.blunt.hurray, a spot with clear views. Hazards are power lines and occasional dog walkers.There is also a car park heading north on the A556. At the time of my visit, this is closed to cars, but you can park in a layby on the A556 and walk round. It can also be accessed from the end of Cookes Lane. Rough take-off location ///this.neck.hope. Some walkers and cyclists use this path.

The style to get over and onto the barrow is at ///lime.text.admiralYou can sometimes park there but it's better (for the residents) if you park along Slyne Road, somewhere along the stretch at ///tend.zones.rabble and walk up the hill to the style.At the top of the barrow is a triangulation point and at this time of the year (Easter) it's the focus of local churches who put up a cross on the top.Various well-worn footpaths including one straight from the style to the stone.Fantastic views on a lovely day of Morecambe bay & the Lakes
