St Catherine's Fort - Added to Historic Buildings in Wales

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

Land owner permission not required.

Parking: 51.671225, -4.703398
TOAL: 51.672866, -4.695374

Great place to visit and finally, 'to fly'. Brought up here, worked here as an Ice Cream Van Man on the beaches in the late 80's. So great to get back with the drones.

St Catherines Island and Fort is situated on the award-winning Castle Beach, just off Tenby harbour. It has a very exciting history, including 13th Century chapel, Victorian Fort, Palatial home, Wartime garrison, Zoo, Movie location and now visitors attraction.

St Catherines Island and Fort have tour guides that will help you during your visit, to provide you with as much information as you can take in, as well as a full slide show on the history of the Island. The views and wildlife on the Island is spectacular, including rare plants, a nesting family of Choughs, several daily visits from our local Peregrine Falcon family and even an Island Fox. The Island is a designated 'Site Of Special Scientific Interest' and the Fort is a 'Grade 2 star' listed property.

Finds on the Island include, Ice Age Bones, Roman Coins, Human Remains and an Egyptian Shabti or figurine dating from 1600 BC.

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 06/08/2023. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location.
