Smardale Gill Viaduct - Added to Bridges in North West

Where to fly your drone in the UK
1

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

5464×3070 4.05 MB

Land owner permission requirements unknown.

Nice little walk with 2 viaducts to film or photograph, note this is a wildlife conservation area but i think it's more to do with plants as it's ancient woodland.
you can park at grid 54.469981, -2.398293 what 3 words ///segmented.commuted.care and then it's a leisurely walk to the viaducts and you will pass Smardale Hall which is an interesting building

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 28/05/2022. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location.

I want to fly here @stevesb, but there are no parking or take off and landing markers. Would you be able to add some to the map please?

Hi bill I’ve added the markers, there was a grid reference in the description as at the time there wasn’t the facility to add TOAL marker and parking markers. it is a bit of a walk but easy as it is fairly level due to it being an old railway and at the time of my trip it was well maintained and firm underfoot.

Hi, I’m not sure I’ve selected correct viaduct - there appear to be 2 others Merrygill & Podsgill which are to the east of Kirkby Stephen

Thank you for information
