Old Man of Mow - rock stack - Added to Iconic Landscapes and Ancient Sites in North West

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

Land owner permission not required.

Old Man of Mow - a rock stack atop the Mow Cop / Congleton Edge ridge. Park up in the Mow Cop Castle car park and it is a 5 minute walk to the Old Man.

The site is NT, but not covered wiht any FRZ, so TOAL from further along the Gritstone Trail - which is public land - in order to avoid the NT Byelaws, although I can't say I have seen an NT warden there whenever I have visited…

The 65' stack has 2 distinct faces, the old man from the side view and another face from the front.

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 11/06/2023. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location.
