River Bollin, Heatley - Added to Rivers and Canals in North West

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

Land owner permission requirements unknown.

Parked in Henshall Lane car park, near the Rope & Anchor.
Walked down the Trans Pennine Trail towards Lymm.
There’s a footpath south west from there towards the Bollin river… It can be muddy crossing the field unless the ground is frozen.
TOAL near a small bridge across the Bollin.

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 18/01/2024. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location.

I want to fly here @Dvdjo, have you got any other tips or advice?

Hi Wayne @RemoteIDsaveslives. If the Henshall Lane car park is full, or muddy, you could park in the Rope and Anchor and there’s a gate directly onto the TransPennine way. Eventually there’s a footpath signposted on both sides to the Bollin Valley path. Left takes you towards Lymm which is the place I flew. Cross the field and I toal’d from near a small bridge over the Bollin. Hope this helps.

You can also turn right off the TP Way along the Bollin Valley path, but I haven’t documented this one, though have flown there a couple of times.
