I have just added this to the map of places to fly your drone at Drone Scene:
A large 158 acre public open space with lakes, a lido, athletics tracks and lots of space to fly
The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 18/06/2025. 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.
For any FPV folks there are a couple of good spots that I fly regularly:
///posed.inform.catch
This is a small wooded area, pretty tight flying inside it (tinywhoops only I would say) but there is very litte civilian traffic in an otherwise busy London park, so it is a good spot to practice without annoying anyone else.
///maybe.boxer.hiking
This is my new favourite, still wooded but a little more open (basically a big avenue at one edge of the common), loads of really nice trees with great gaps! Again I have only flown tinywhoops here, it may be a bit tight for anything larger. There are pathways either side, a few people passing by on foot, but it is easy to stick to the central area and stay out of their way, I have had no complaints, only a couple of curious passers-by who stopped for a chat.
Easy access, parking on Woodbourne Avenue is only restricted to permits Mon-Fri between 12-2pm, and all the other roads round there are similar, definitely all free at weekends, and it is at the quieter end of town.
