Worcester Lodge at Badminton House - Added to Historic Buildings in Cotswold, South West

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

Worcester Lodge is a Grade I listed building designed by William Kent, with southern facing parkland, leading towards the three-mile avenue to Badminton House.

It was completed in 1746 and served as a banqueting hall, a central feature in the landscape, a gatehouse with accommodation for a gatekeeper and a place to watch the Beaufort Hunt based on the estate of Badminton House . Today the grand room inside can be hired as a private dining space and the park in front for weddings and large outdoor events.

The Badminton estate is perhaps best known as the location for the much televised annual Badminton Horse trials

TOAL is from the grass verge that runs alongside the main road that passes in front of the building

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 28/03/2025. 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.
