Franklin's Gardens (currently known for sponsorship purposes as cinch Stadium at Franklin's Gardens) is a purpose-built rugby stadium in Northampton, England. It is the home stadium of Northampton Saints and Loughborough Lightning. The stadium holds 15,249 people. It is also a conference, meeting, and events venue, as well as the only Premiership Rugby ground with its own cenotaph, the setting for a ceremony every Remembrance Weekend.

I was at max allowed height, so could not get a top down picture of the tower.

Quite a strange location as the tower is in the centre of a hosing estate, parked on the street in between the tower and the stadium

West Bay, originally known as Bridport Harbour, is a small harbour settlement and resort on the English Channel coast in Dorset, England, sited at the mouth of the River Brit approximately 1.5 miles south of Bridport. The area is part of the Jurassic Coast, a World Heritage Site.

The beach and harbour were quite busy so TOAL was from public carpark back from the seafront.

Kings Mill or Shipley mill is a traditional smock mill built in 1879. Tricky access as the local path is closed and so a bit of a trek across the fields of Knepp Estate is needed

Really easy access to the harbour. Just park up at the Crazy Golf and it's free for 2 hours which is more than enough time to get down to the harbour. Follow the path down and within 5 minutes you're there ready to fly and the harbour and village are small so there's not too many tourists around either.

Robert Loyd-Lindsay, 1st Baron Wantage, was a soldier, politician and philanthropist.

He co-founded the British National Society for Aid to the Sick and Wounded in War, which later became the British Red Cross. He was also the first man to win a Victoria Cross in the Crimean War

He died in 1901. Lady Wantage erected a monument to Lord Wantage in 1903.

The monument stands on a Bronze Age round barrow adjacent to the Ridgeway at Betterton Down near Lockinge, Oxfordshire.

As well as the historical significance of the monument, the Ridgeway national trail and the ancient barrow on which it stands, the area is surrounded by gentle rolling Oxfordshire countryside and beech tree clumps

Scutchamer Knob, also known as Cuckhamsley Hill is an early Iron Age round barrow on the Ridgeway National Trail at East Hendred Down in Oxfordshire.

Originally called Cwichelmeshlaew or Cwichelm's Barrow, it is recorded as having been the place where King Edwin of Northumbria killed Cwichelm of Wessex in AD 636 and, in the Middle Ages, became the meeting point of the shire moot (or market) which was abolished in 1620.

It was long thought to be the actual burial place of Cwichelm but the mound has been excavated several times without serious finds.

The barrow is privately owned but there is free public access through a metal kissing gate.

Free parking is nearby in an informal car park on The Ridgeway

Cherbury Camp is a multi-mound hill fort-like earthwork north of the village of Charney Bassett in the Vale of White Horse, Oxfordshire. The site is connected to the village by a footpath although there is no public access to within the fort itself.

The fortification was protected by three ditches and embankments, a stream and a marsh. It had an entrance on its Eastern flank. It is larger than its better known counterpart, Uffington Castle (location also on Drone Scene), on the Ridgeway. The location may seem odd compared with the many hill forts however, it was strategically placed at the narrowest neck of land between the River Thames and the River Ock.

In structure and unusual siting, it resembles nearby Hardwell Castle (location also on Drone Scene). Its current form may date from the latter part of the middle Iron Age, most probably from after 200 BC

Legend has it that the local inhabitants of Uffington Castle travelled the intervening 6 miles to raid Cherbury Camp, where King Canute and his invading army were encamped. However, a young shepherd boy spotted them and blew his horn as a warning to the Danes. They are said to have consequently prevailed in the subsequent battle, which took place at the crossroads halfway between Charney Bassett and Buckland. The area became known as Gainfield as a result.

However true or otherwise this local legend may be, the horn, known as the Pusey Horn, is now housed in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

The site is a scheduled monument

Seven Barrows is a Bronze Age bowl barrow cemetery, 4-hectare (10 acres) of which are designated a biological Site of Special Scientific Interest, at Upper Lambourn, Berkshire. It is managed by the Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire Wildlife Trust and it is a Scheduled Monument.

Nationally important for its archaeology as well as its wildlife, this ancient and atmospheric site has a wonderful variety of chalk grassland flowers and butterflies -the area is an unimproved chalk grassland with a rich flora and over 100 species of herbs have been recorded. It is also very rich in insects, especially butterflies, including small blue, brown argus, chalkhill blue, dark green fritillary and the scarce marsh fritillary.

The Seven Barrows site (there are actually 30 of them in the vicinity) may have been one of the first areas to have been cleared by early humans from woodland to create arable pastures
