Deerleap, Mendip (By repeater)

Deerleap is a spectacular heritage reserve and viewpoint on the southern edge of the Mendip Hills in Somerset, located just 3 miles northwest of Wells.

Clovelly Dykes, Torridge (By gasbag43)

There is nothing quite like an aerial view to make you appreciate the sheer scale of ancient history. These shots capture Clovelly Dykes (also known as Ditchen Hills), an impressive Iron Age hillfort located just a stone's throw from the North Devon coast. While it looks like a series of gentle, grassy waves from the ground, getting up into the air reveals its complex, concentric architecture.

The first image provides a close-up look at the innermost enclosures. The preservation of the massive earthen ramparts and deep ditches is remarkable, showcasing the engineering skills of the people who dug these defences over 2,000 years ago.

Pulling back in the second shot, the magnitude of the multi-ditch fort comes into focus. You can see how the sprawling outer banks cut across the modern Devon fields, dwarfing the nearby houses and roads.

An absolute must-see for anyone interested in British archaeology, and a rewarding subject to photograph from above.

There is no public access to the site and being completely surrounded by tall trees and bushes, it is invisible from the ground outside its perimeter (I stumbled on it by accident looking at Ordnance Survey maps).

Parking and TOAL point is a disused service station the other side of the road from the site.

Loughor Estuary, Carmarthenshire (By stubbyd)

I realise Loughor Castle has been "done" as a location and that can just be seen in the 360, but two things made me post this:

1. It adds TOAL and parking markers.
2. The main POV isn't the castle.

Should you be in the area, then do make sure to also visit Coffi @The Foundry which is in the drab blue 'industrial' looking units beyond the two slipways. The food is fabulous, the coffi (coffee) is also good

Speke's Mill Mouth Waterfall, Torridge (By gasbag43)

There is nothing quite like the rugged majesty of the North Devon coast, and Speke’s Mill Mouth waterfall absolutely steals the show. These three perspectives capture the dramatic geological geometry where the rolling Devon countryside abruptly collides with the Atlantic Ocean.

The falls are one of the most popular waterfalls in North Devon and are located in a stunningly beautiful area of hanging valleys and high cliffs, where wildflowers flourish on the clifftops at this time of year. The water falls 48 metres in three steps, from the edge of the cliffs to the rocky beach below.

The wide panoramic view from the valley floor, highlights the striking, near-vertical rock strata sculpted by tectonic history. The main waterfall plunges down a sheer rock face before cascading over a secondary rocky tier, surrounded by lush, vibrant spring greens.

Switching to an aerial perspective, the top-down drone shot reveals the fascinating anatomy of the landscape. From above, you can trace the winding coastal footpaths, the sheer drop of the falls, and the hidden plunge pools carved out over millennia.

Finally, the high-angle coastal view pulls back to reveal the bigger picture: a jagged, razor-sharp headland cutting into the churning Atlantic surf.

An unforgettable location to shoot, where every angle offers a great composition.

Parking is along the coast at the wonderful Hartland Quay hotel

St Mary Redcliffe Church, Bristol (By richrab)


The Church of St Mary the Virgin, widely known as St Mary Redcliffe, is the main Church of England parish church for the Redcliffe district of the city of Bristol

The church is considered one of the country's finest and largest parish churches as well as an outstanding example of English Gothic architecture. The church is so large it is sometimes mistaken for Bristol Cathedral by tourists. The building has Grade I listed status, the highest possible category, by Historic England.

St Mary Redcliffe has received widespread critical acclaim from various architects, historians, poets, writers and monarchs. In 1541 the English topographer and antiquary John Leland, claimed it was "the most beautiful of all churches" he had seen in England. Queen Elizabeth I, on a visit to the church in 1574, was said to have described St Mary Redcliffe as "The fairest, goodliest and most famous parish church in England"
