Crossraguel Abbey, Carrick South - Added to Castles and Fortifications in Scotland

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

The Abbey of Saint Mary of Crossraguel is a ruin of a former abbey near the town of Maybole, South Ayrshire, Scotland. Although it is a ruin, visitors can still see the original monks’ church, their cloister and their dovecot.

Founded in 1244 by Donnchadh, Earl of Carrick, following an earlier donation of 1225, to the monks of Paisley Abbey for that purpose. They reputedly built nothing more than a small chapel and kept the balance for themselves. The Earl took the matter to the Bishop of Glasgow for arbitration and, winning his case, forced the monks to build a proper abbey.

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 04/08/2025. 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.

Thanks! Now listed. :+1:

thank you. Can panos not be uploaded directly from a laptop, or does it have to be from KUULA OR HAVE A URL?

360° panos need to be uploaded to Kuula to display them interactively on the forum and on Drone Scene.

thanks i will look into Kuula.

I’ve just added some more media to this location on Drone Scene.
