From this location there are excellent views up Ribble Valley towards Clitheroe & Pendle. A short walk up the creek you come to the remains of a Roman Baths.

Need to be considerate of the school adjacent to the river.

Best to fly here out of season (early spring). To avoid traffic chaos. I parked in pay and display car park in village (about 1/4 mile walk). Some nice benches to sit on near by overlooking river and catch some sun.

Dalemain is a Grade I listed historic country house located in the Lake District Park approximately five miles southwest of Penrith in Cumbria, England. The estate has a long and rich history, with evidence of a Saxon settlement at the site. The River Eamont, which historically marked the boundary between Cumberland and Westmorland, was fordable here, and the valley provided natural shelter from harsh weather conditions.
During the reign of King Henry II, a pele tower was constructed at Dalemain to defend against Scottish raiders. The old hall, dating back to the 12th century, was later expanded with wings added in the 16th century. The estate underwent significant transformation in 1679 when Sir Edward Hasell, formerly the steward to Lady Anne Clifford, purchased Dalemain. It has remained in the Hasell family ever since. Following his acquisition, Sir Edward made substantial alterations, including the construction of a grand staircase, modernization of the farmyard, and the addition of a retaining wall below the terrace.
The most striking change to Dalemain came in 1744 when Sir Edward’s son completed the impressive Georgian front, enclosing the older sections within a central courtyard. This addition introduced symmetrical, neoclassical features, including a cantilevered staircase in the new front hall. In 1748, the garden façade was also rebuilt to match the Georgian front. Since then, Dalemain has undergone no major structural alterations. The courtyard itself evolved from a medieval hamlet built around the defensive pele tower to a working farmstead, with many original buildings still standing. Above the courtyard, the Deer Park has remained home to a herd of fallow deer for centuries.

Open at selected times throughout the year so check out their website for details. You can park in their carpark and stay for a lovely cream tea or something more substantual in their tearoom.

I took off just outside the property but you still get a clear view from just off the roadside.

Marine Lake is a small cove towards the north of Weston Bay. Refurbished in early 2022, it is an “infinity” pool with its own sandy beach and permanently offers sea-water bathing even when the tide is out.

Weston-super-Mare has the second highest tidal range in the world, so the sea does go a long way out at low tide meaning that Marine Lake's water is replenished every day by the natural high tides and is kept in place by sluices, so there is always water.

The Marine Lake is great for reflections and foreground interest in compositions form the ground, but shooting from the air adds another dimension, particularly as regards reflected sunsets

RAF Yatesbury is a former Royal Air Force airfield near the village of Yatesbury, Wiltshire, England, about 4 miles (6 km) east of the town of Calne. It was an important training establishment in the First and Second World Wars and until its closure in 1965.

In 1969 the wooden huts were demolished and the land returned again to farming, leaving only a number of brick-built buildings, including the Officers' Mess, the gymnasium and three hangars.

Since 1987 the two groups of hangars built in 1916 have been Grade II* listed. In 1989 the former Officers' Mess and offices, built in 1936, were listed Grade II. In 1998 North Wiltshire District Council designated Yatesbury Aerodrome a Conservation Area.

The airfield is now farmland.

TOAL point is just outside the Yatesbury Microlight Site area

Unique location that exhibits Rudston Monolith, a huge stone pillar standing 26 feet high, making it the tallest standing stone in Britain. How it got there is still a mystery but go and visit and form your own opinion. The Church and it's history is a bonus. I flew from the churchyard and parked on a side street very close in proximity

Blaen y Glyn waterfall is within Talybont Forest in the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park.

You can walk to Blaen y Glyn waterfall from either of two car parks - Blaen y Glyn Isaf is the lower car park and Blaen y Glyn Uchaf is the upper car park - the location mapped here is the lower car park.

The walk up to the beautiful waterfall takes about 20 minutes - there are plenty of other waterfalls in the area, but most have extensive tree cover that make flying a drone challenging
