The club flying site is situated in the village of Much Marcle, Herefordshire and is approached via the drive way to the right of Weston's garage. Much Marcle is situated on the A449 about half way between Ledbury and Ross-on-Wye. Click here for a map showing the location of our flying field.
The field is some 30 acres with a well maintained mown strip and club house.
The Clubhouse is kept locked and all members are entitled to know the padlock combination. Please contact the Secretary or any other committee member for the number. The field is often also occupied by sheep.
Here's a picture of the club hut, car park and pits area taken in November 2003. The flying strip is right behind the photographer (Antony Redding).

Limitations are placed on times for flying model aircraft powered by internal combustion engines and fast electric aircraft. Silent flight, including low powered electric aircraft, may be undertaken during all daylight hours within the permitted flight envelope, subject to any exceptional circumstances as may be notified from time to time.
