This site in England is rarely used and is primarily suitable for local soaring with a southwest wind. There are several takeoff options available. The site is located at a height of 222 meters above sea level, with a top-to-bottom height of 200 feet. For more information, visit: [Avon Hang Gliding and Paragliding Club](http://www.avonhgpg.co.uk/sites/sites.php). **Coordinates:** - Grid Reference: ST806 345 - Latitude: 51.109463 - Longitude: -2.278496 **Wind Directions:** - Suitable for S, SSW, SW, WSW winds. **Site Details:** - Height ASL: 760 feet - Site Code: 2.037 - Open site, accessible to any rated pilot. No training allowed. **Parking:** - Park on the main track without blocking it or the gates into the surrounding fields. Do not drive into any of the fields. **Rigging:** - Rig in the bowl behind takeoff and in front of the fence. **Takeoff:** - Take off anywhere in the bowl facing the prevailing wind. Paragliders should avoid launching directly in front of rigging hang glider pilots. In stronger winds, it may be challenging to penetrate out from the bowl. **Local Flying:** - The site can be turbulent if the wind is not from the southwest due to rotor effects from the spurs on either side. These conditions can lead to rapid height losses and canopy deflations. Always check the true wind direction before flying. Spencer’s Bowl is a better option on weekdays. **XC Flying:** - Be cautious of the Salisbury Plain ranges 7 miles to the northeast and the wildlife park at Longleat, 4 miles to the north. **Top Landing:** - Difficult for hang gliders due to restricted space. Land on the spur to the west in a SW-WSW wind or just behind the bowl in an S wind. Avoid disturbing farm animals. Paragliders can land in the bowl area but should be cautious of the barbed wire fence and thorny bushes. **Bottom Landing:** - Only possible if the field below takeoff is not in crop. If you land in the crops, walk out with minimal damage and apologize to the farmer at Wood Farm. Paragliders have ample space to land within the bowl area but should avoid the small tree plantation at the bottom. **Directions:** - From Frome, head south on the B3092. Two miles after Maiden Bradley, turn left immediately after the Red Lion pub into Long Lane. Follow the main track up the hill until you reach a water works site with a large aerial in a field to the right. Park here and access the site along the small track to the works and then through a gate to the left. Close all gates.
