The Vandalian Tower is a monument to failure. Vandalia was a colony planned to thrive in what is now Kentucky but politics prevented its survival. It is rumoured locally that Emma Hamilton would watch for the return of her lover Lord Nelson's fleet from the tower but there must be far better posirions to look out to Spithead and the Solent.From South Harting head for Chichester on the B2141. Between 1905 and 1924 hill climbs were held regularly at South Harting, I think that this road may have been the one used. Near the summit is a National Trust car park for Harting Down. There is a discreet noticed that I only saw when leaving saying that you can pay by phone or internet. I haven;t investigated further. Go into the car park as far as you can and go left down toward the road. Park and walk north toward the finger post showing the route of the South Downs Way. Walk left toward the road and cross carefully.Good walking boots would be useful. You will be walking in an old wood with plenty of fallen branches, leaf mould and fallen whole trees. Stay on the path for around 110 metres and look for the trace of a pathway climbing up through the treesto the open space. It may be an idea to place a marker at the point you emerge from the trees as an easy way to find your way back.Walk uphill on the mown strip with the fence to your left. There were sheep in the field when I went, dogs aare best left at home. Pick a spot for TOAL and make sure the home is properly recorded at the start of the mission, you are operating fairly close to trees.Uppark House and some of the land to the west of the tower is National Trust - the tower area is NOT!The tower is a shadow of its former self and, although you can get low over and into it it's the views of the Hampshire and West Sussex countryside that makes this agood place to fly.

Church in the sea on Anglesey. A very strange place for a church on a tiny island not much bigger than the church itself. Quite easy to find, but limited parking as its down a farm lane once off the main roads. Different view depending on whether the tide is in or out. Also right next door to Anglesey race circuit which is also worth a visit for car and bike fans. Its also where they film a lot of '5th Gear' track action amongst other things.

Penmon Lighthouse, Anglesey North Wales. A lighthouse near Beaumaris, looking over to the mainland of Wales of Llandudno and surrounding areas. Very popular place to visit. Nice little cafe. Plenty of space to park either back down the road or pay the toll to drive right up to the lighthouse. It is a popular area for people with campervans to stay overnight and for people wanting to watch the sunset.

South Stack Lighthouse, Holyhead North Wales. A famous lighthouse right on the far tip of Anglesey. Easy to find and park up in the pay and display car park. You can walk around the area for free but you have to pay if you want to visit the lighthouse. Nice cafe and area to enjoy your visit there. Can be very windy here so make sure you pick a calm day if you're wanting to fly.

A great site of an old brickworks. Old buildings and great beaches. Tip of Anglesey, North Wales. Not easy to park as its on an old single lane road but parking can be found. There is debate on the island if its private or not, but the landowner does nothing to stop people visiting and its open to walk to without crossing fences etc. Its a very popular area in the summer but its a bit of a secret too, mainly used by locals. Well worth a visit and if everyone leaves it how they find it I cant see visits stopping anytime soon.

A great place for flying and a day out at the lake in Llanberis, North Wales. Parking is easy as there is a small area at the entrance to where the castle is. It's easy to find also. Head into Llanberis and before you enter the town it is on the right when you come out of the 40 zone. Great views of the castle, two lakes and the Snowdonia Mountain range. It is also down the road from the train that takes you up Snowdon.
