Astbury Mere Country Park - Added to Parks and Recreation in North West

I have just added this to the map of places to fly your drone at Drone Scene:

Land owner permission not required.

Astbury Mere Country Park was the site of a former sand quarry in the 1980’s. At the time I believe there were some interesting conversations as to what should be done with the land.

Thankfully, local residents took on the local authorities and businesses to ensure the land became a country park…

Today the park hosts Congleton’s 5k park run, Astbury Watersports Centre and a nice little coffee shop.

There is parking onsite which is chargeable or just outside you can park for free :blush:

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 02/12/2023. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location.
