Very photogenic church on top of a hill.
The Church of St Peter & St Paul consists of a Chancel 30ft x 18ft. with South Organ Chamber & Vestry; a Nave 52-ft x 21ft-2ins with South Aisle 9-ft wide, South Porch, and a South-West Tower 10ft-6ins square, all measurements being internal.
The whole building seems to be of 15thC date, with modern additions & repairs and has had its outer surface entirely renewed, so that hardly a trace of old work shows on the outside. The situation is an unusually fine one at the top of a spur of the Chiltern Hills, 500-ft above the Ordnance Datum & overlooking the Vale of Aylesbury.
The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 09/07/2022. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location.
Okay. I flew this mission with my Mini 3 Pro today (13/08/24)
I have added markers for my TOAL and also Parking. There is a small parking layby on the south side of the road. I spotted it on Google Street. Sufficient for I would say 3 to 5 cars, depending how people park of course. I was lucky and only one car there when I arrived. There is a sign adjacent to the Church announcing Church parking for visitors but it was locked. (Padlock and Chain). So, my plan B was to park a couple of miles away and walk back!
Flights went absolutely great. Beautiful day and just uploaded the video to my YouTube channel. (Didn’t upload as there is already one here)
There are a couple of SSSI, one on Beacon Hill and the other north of the church. so I chose my TOAL carefully and flew to avoid these areas.
