I have just added this to the map of places to fly your drone at Drone Scene:
Land owner permission not required.
The Port of Felixstowe, in Felixstowe, Suffolk, is the United Kingdom’s largest container port, dealing with 48% of Britain’s containerised trade.
In 2017, it was ranked as 43rd busiest container port in the world and 8th in Europe, with a handled traffic of 3.85 million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU). In 2019 it was ranked the UK’s 7th busiest port.
The port is operated by the Felixstowe Dock and Railway Company, which was set up under an Act of Parliament, the Felixstowe Railway and Pier Act 1875, and so is one of the few limited companies in the UK that do not have the word “Limited” in their name.
Much of the land on which it sits is owned by Trinity College, Cambridge, which in the 1930s bought some land near Felixstowe which included a dock that was too small to be included in the National Dock Labour Scheme. In 1967, it set up Britain’s first container terminal for £3.5m in a deal with Sea-Land Service.
The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 01/01/2020. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location.
