I have just added this to the map of places to fly your drone at Drone Scene:
Usk castle and town was probably laid out and established in 1120, after some of the other Norman settlements and castles of the region, such as Monmouth Castle and Abergavenny Castle. The castle was listed Grade I in 1953. Within the castle, and incorporating parts of its gatehouse, stands Castle House, a Grade I listed building in its own right.
Usk Castle is located immediately to the north of the present-day town on a hill overlooking the streets and main Twyn Square. It close to – but outside – the FRZ for HMP Usk
Walk-in from the car park was along a disused railway line and across the river which runs alongside the castle. TOAL was from a small clearing in a wood close to the castle
The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 10/04/2025. 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.
