Corsham Court, North Wiltshire (By gasbag43)

Corsham Court is a country house situated in a park designed by Capability Brown. It is in the town of Corsham, 3 miles west of Chippenham, Wiltshire. It is currently the home of the present Baron Methuen, James Methuen-Campbell, the eighth generation of the Methuens to live there.

Corsham was a royal manor in the days of the Saxon kings, reputed to have been a seat of Ethelred the Unready. After William the Conqueror, the manor continued to be passed down through the generations in the royal family. It often formed part of the dower of the Queens of England during the late 14th and early 15th centuries. During the 16th century, the manor went to two of Henry VIII's wives, namely Catherine of Aragon until 1536, and Katherine Parr until 1548.

During the reign of Elizabeth I the estate passed out of the royal family; the present house was built in 1582

In 1960, the house was recorded as Grade I listed

Impressive house situated in large park incorporating a big lake

Iford Manor, West Wiltshire (By gasbag43)

Iford Manor is a Grade II listed building in Wiltshire, about 2 miles southwest of the town of Bradford-on-Avon.

It is a Grade II listed building sitting on the steep, south-facing slope of the Frome valley. The Manor House was built in the late 15th or early 16th century, but most of what is visible is from a rebuilding as an early Georgian house c1725-1730.

Iford is best known for its beautiful gardens, which are designated Grade I in the National Register of Historic Parks and Gardens by Historic England

The Manor house and Gardens are the main reason for recommending this as a location to fly your drone, but its setting in one of the "20 most beautiful villages in the UK and Ireland" (Condé Nast Traveler in 2020) strengthens its case as a great place to visit

To cap it all, immediately outside the manor is a very pretty and ornate medieval stone bridge built circa 1400

Farleigh Hungerford Castle, Mendip (By gasbag43)

Farleigh Hungerford Castle is a medieval castle in Farleigh Hungerford, Somerset.

The castle was built in two phases: the inner court was constructed between 1377 and 1383 on the site of an existing manor house overlooking the River Frome.

A deer park was attached to the castle, requiring the destruction of the nearby village.

Later, the castle was extended with an additional, outer court, enclosing the parish church in the process.

In 1643, the castle was seized by Royalist forces in 1643, but recaptured by Parliament without a fight near the end of the conflict in 1645. As a result, it escaped the destruction of its defensive capabilities following the war, unlike many other castles in the south-west of England.

It is now owned by English Heritage, is a Grade I listed building and a scheduled monument.

This beautiful street, completed in 1789, was commissioned by Sir William Pulteney and designed by Georgian architect Thomas Baldwin.

At one end you will find Laura Place, with its pretty fountain at the centre. At the other end stands the magnificent Holburne Museum, the city's first public art gallery, and Sydney Gardens, the only remaining eighteenth-century pleasure gardens in the country.

Bayard's Cove Fort (By Grazuncle)

This Tudor fort, built by the borough of Dartmouth between 1522 and 1536, contained heavy guns to protect the prosperous harbour town from attack.

It was the last line of defence against enemy ships that had eluded Dartmouth and Kingswear castles and the iron chain stretched across the Dart estuary between them.

Occupying a terrace cut from the rocky river bank, Bayard’s Cove Fort is picturesquely sited at the entrance to Dartmouth harbour.
