Broch of Gurness, Iron Age Orkney - Added to Iconic Landscapes and Ancient Sites in Scotland

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

Land owner permission requirements unknown.

A wonderful open site, which is run by Historic Scotland, so flying out of hours - or when it is closed - and TOAL off their land. Good free car park that will afford a good TOAL spot, and can easily keep VLOS to the site as it is quite close to the car park.

Can be windy - we had 20-25mph gusts which made the MINI3 Pro bounce a bit, but once moving it is ok.

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 28/06/2023. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location.
