I have just added this to the map of places to fly your drone at Drone Scene:
Porthgain Harbour and hamlet.
aka - the last flight of my much shortened trip before Storm Amy dug her claws in …
Porthgain means ‘Chisel Port’ in English with the chisel representing the quarrying that once took place here.
From around 1850 slate, then brick, and then granite were shipped from the harbour. The crushed granite road stone was dispensed from the massive brick built hoppers, built at the beginning of the twentieth century, directly into small ships alongside Porthgain harbour. There was also a tramway built between the Blue Lagoon and here so that it was easier to ship out their slate.
The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 20/10/2025. 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.
