Uley Long Barrow - Added to Iconic Landscapes and Ancient Sites in South West

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

Land owner permission not required.

Parking and TOAL was from a lay-by off the B4066, South East of the site.

Uley Long Barrow is a partially reconstructed Neolithic chambered mound. It is 37 metres long and overlooks the Severn Valley. It's known locally as Hetty Pegler's Tump, after Hester Pegler who owned the land in the 17th century.

The barrow as seen today is largely the result of the excavation and reconstruction undertaken by Dr John Thurnham in 1854 and subsequent repairs in 1871, 1891 and 1906.

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 23/01/2022. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location.
