Tidbury Ring Hillfort - Added to Iconic Landscapes and Ancient Sites in South East

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

Land owner permission not required.

Parking & TOAL: 51.176787, -1.342051

Tidbury Ring is the site of an Iron Age univallate hillfort in Hampshire, on a hill whose summit is 374 feet above sea level. The earthworks have been heavily destroyed by ploughing, but some sections to the south remain in better condition.

The entrance to the fort lies to its south-east. The interior is for the most part farmland with the earthworks now covered by small trees and undergrowth. Two Roman buildings, possibly a courtyard villa complex were found within the hill-fort. The site is now listed as a scheduled ancient monument.

The site is found to the north of the village of Sutton Scotney. The A34 dual-carriageway passes immediately to the east of the site. Another hillfort, Norsebury Ring, lies close by to the south-east.

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 29/07/2023. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location.

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