Watch out for English Heritage - I bet they HATE that ! Looks like you didn’t TOAL from their land though, so hopefully they can’t touch you…

This thread explains all, @bmsleight worked with EH to have permission to fly there:

English Heritage like us! We took off from their land.

Wow - genuinely blown away that those guys would allows that !

I flew my old flamewheel back in the day over Porchester Castle (also when it was closed) and they went f**king mental at me, and I had to do some serious weedling to prevent legal proceedings, although I didn’t manage to stop them reporting me to CAA for laws I wasn’t breaking ! Anyway, very encouraging to see they have become MORE reasonable over time, but it’s still cheeky as hell to be trying (and succeeding) to charge £30 per flyer ! It is free to everyone else, and often deserted !

Little steps. Gain trust and who knows. :crossed_fingers::pray:

Love it - was here a couple of months ago (before they closed it to film Midsomer Murders!)

Brilliant effort by @bmsleight to actually get permission… :ok_hand: Shows that if we ask, sometimes people are ok with us! :grinning:

Your FPV-ing sparked the idea. Likely to be repeated
