Millennium Field / Sheet Allotments added to Parks and Recreation in South East by AeroJ on 09/08/2024

Hidden away in the tiny village of Sheet, Hampshire is a little gem of a fly site, if luck is on your side ! Approaching Sheet from the Petersfield side, turn right down Mill Lane (VERY narrow) and work your way down to a tiny car park on your left, which borders the ambitiously-named 'Millennium field'.

This field is small, overgrown, and unspectacular in and of itself, but the brilliance of this site lies in the huge allotments garden to the left and the very close proximity to the railway line at the far end (careful of that !). There will be 'some dogs', probably not on leads, and long grasses everywhere except the bits where the dogs pass, so bring a landing pad and launch off-path if you can.

How we fly here depends on whether you have been over to talk to people working on their allotments first ! If you are lucky, then there'll only be a few people there working on their plots, and if you ask nicely they may agree to let you TOAL from the paths within the allotment (bonus, no dogs!), and allow close-pass flights over the gardens, which makes for exceptionally interesting footage of some very well-maintained little patchwork plots !

But if luck is not on your side the people you ask may insist that you have to write to the allotment co-ordinator, put signs up, get EVERYONE's permission before you can fly, and basically it's a no-go from them for that day ! In that case I inform them that I can legally fly from the field right next door, and they should expect drone movement in the vicinity, but that I will keep high over their allotments and not hover there for extended periods of time.. The gardens still look amazing from high up, so it's not a total loss if this happens, and still worth burning a pack on ! But if they let you down to head-height, then you can spend a solid hour filming this without much repetition !

Land owner permission not required.

Dinorwic Quarry (By AlbionDrones)

Huge industrial remnants spread over about 4 square miles and about 1500ft.

Park at the marked area on the map and its about a half mile walk to the edge of the quarry on good paths, then you have the quarry opening up in front of you. Main paths very accessible, although some are steep, other areas to explore will require some mobility and fitness.

Lots of drone flyers about - mainly walkers with DJI MINI's...

Also a very exposed site, high winds were evident when we visited...
