Herstmonceux Castle Estate - Added to Castles and Fortifications in Wealden, South East

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

Herstmonceux Castle Estate Sussex,
A lovely castle with lots of fields around & woodland,
Thought id head down here today but unbeknown there is renovation work on going with the castle so didn’t manage to capture the shots that I wanted, nonetheless I thought carry on, had done some research on the place itself before I headed down & would be more photogenic when the renovation is finished so I may head back, TOAL & park is very easy with just a couple of minutes walk, a few public & dog walkers in & around but a real easy place to fly, in all a real nice location.

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 13/04/2025. 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.

If driving park on church road where you walk up through a path in woodland that then opens out near some fields, picture below of easiest route that I found to TOAL location.

well done. I have been there a couple of times but was put off by the renovation work. I think it will continue for most of this year

Thanks,
I was saying to myself & wondered why you maybe had not done it yet & kinda had an inclination I was near, on your territory :smiley:
After quite some travel I didn’t want to come back without it tbh cheers :+1:
