Sharpe's Folly - Added to Historic Buildings in North East

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

Land owner permission requirements unknown.

Sharpe’s Folly is an 18th-century structure, considered to be the earliest folly in Northumberland. It is thought to have been built by Archdeacon Sharpe as a project to help alleviate local unemployment.
The folly is Grade II* Listed. At around 30ft high it’s not exactly a skyscraper of a structure, but it comes in handy for practice.
There is a small area suitable for parking just across the road from the folly at W3W: ///clutches.amicably.swept.
TOAL from the road, and watch out for the treetops if circling the tower.

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 06/06/2023. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location.
