Pewsey White Horse - 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: 51.319524, -1.754289
TOAL: 51.320642, -1.756850

There is a large lay-by at the top of Pewsey Hill about 5 minutes walk southeast of the white horse. Once parked, you walk down the lane, cross the stile, down the farmers field and there's a bench. I TOAL'd from the there. Views to die for over Pewsey Downs.

The white horse was cut by volunteers from Pewsey Fire Brigade in 1937 to commemorate the Coronation of George VI. Originally the date it was cut appeared above the horse, but this has since disappeared. This current horse replaces a lost 18th century one.

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 26/02/2023. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location.

If you are referring to the Pewsey White Horse, yes, it’s fine. It’s a short walk 5 minute from the lay-by to the white horse. There’s a stile where you can cross the fence half way down.

The Alton Barnes White Horse, 5.5 miles to the north west, is here. Which is also fine to fly at.
