I have just added this to the map of places to fly your drone at Drone Scene:
Candleston Castle is a 14th-century fortified manor house, in ruins since the 19th century.
It comprises a D-shaped courtyard about 30m across with a very ruined wall 1.1m thick rising 2m to the wall walk from the inside but rather more above the ground outside, plus a two storey hall block and tower on the east side
Candleston’s original long and narrow rectangular structure lay across the western end of a low narrow promontory, suggesting a defensive position.
The castle is believed to be named after the Norman family of Cantilupe, thought to be its first feudal tenants.
As you can see from my photos, its pretty overgrown, but beautifully located in a heavily wooded area with lovely views to be had of the surrounding area from the air
The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 10/01/2026. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location. Landowner permission may be required before taking off.
