Had a quick drive around the area today as I know there are a few confined areas that the helicopters land in but wondered if anyone could give me details of these areas and how to get to them?
I know pigeon wood seems a popular place and not 100% sure if I was close to it today so wanted to double check for future reference.
Thanks for any help!

Have a look at that map fella. It's not super high resolution, but with some Google maps and local knowledge you should be able to figure places out.

Re: Nesscliffe training area
Travel along the A5 from the direction of Shrewsbury heading towards Oswestry after about 7 miles you arrive at the village of Nesscliffe look for a sign for Pentre this is very close to Nesscliffe Camp.
Near to the camp is The Royal Hill Public House which is on the banks of the river seven, when I was last at the pub they had numerous signed photographs of F3 Tornados
crews who had enjoyed their hospitality, in the bar is a wooden butchers table etched with marks showing the length of salmon caught which correlates to 15lbs 20lbs and I think the largest was 30 lbs caught by the water bailiff.
