Leyland motors test track added to Everything Else in North West by markas on 03/02/2021

This place is going to be reveloped into housing. If you park on Titan way, walk towards Paradise way and head into the wooded area, there is a section of the concrete wall missing and you can gain access, no security and the place was deserted when I visited.

Prospect Park and The Mansion House (By apreading)

Plenty of parking in or around the park. Dense woodland at the top, so probably best to fly the drone from the open areas at the foot of the hill, which are wide open spaces.

The Mansion House has an interesting history and is an iconic and well known building in West Reading. Some

Prospect Park is a public park situated north of the A4 (Bath Road) in the western suburbs of Reading.

Old Auchans house (By Kcscott)

Large trees located round the perimeter and some smaller ones inside the castle walls.
Area has been fenced off due to safety concerns for the structure so access to the castle isn't allowed.

History of Auchans House:
It was originally a mid 16th century stone Z-plan tower house, founded by William Wallace of Dundonald and Auchans. Built with materials removed from Dundonald Castle, the long main block, is of three storeys and an attic. With its vaulted basements and being of slightly different construction, it could be part of an earlier building. Flanking its south wall, is a central round stair tower and a terrace which was originally encased by a barmkin wall. In 1640, the house was converted into a L-plan, when Sir William Cochrane of Cowdon, added a wing of three storeys and a garret. In 1667, the wing was extended by the addition of a block with a crow-stepped gable, flanked by a round stair tower and a corbelled-out square, round angle tower. The main entrance in the re-entrant angle, was through a Renaissance-style doorway below an armorial shield in the square stair-turret. Sadly this once magnificent Scottish baronial residence, is now a complete ruin

Harborough Rocks (By Earwig)

Several of us have flown here. I'm surprised it hasn't been added previously.

Nice, open area for FPV cruising, with some interesting features, both natural and man-made, if you want to do a bit of proximity flying.
Not usually very busy, despite being right next to the Tissington Trail and popular with rock climbers - just keep away from them. Extensive views across the Dales from the trig point at the top of the hill. It can get windy.

Parking at ///submerge.financial.trespass (what3words) and along the road.
