Rylstone Cross, Rylstone, North Yorkshire - Added to Everything Else in Craven, Yorkshire and the Humber

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

Originally a wooden cross, erected to celebrate 50 years of Queen Victoria’s reign, it has been repaired and replaced on a couple of occasions, the most recent was in 1995, by all accounts there is a time capsule within the structure containing all the local newspapers from the week it was erected.

You can also get some great views of the dales from up here.

This is only a 15 minute cycle ride for me, if you are driving, you can park on street for free adjacent to Rylstone duck pond, from there it would be a 30 to 45 minute walk along the bridleway.

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 21/06/2025. 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.
