Limitations and Stipulations

All activity on the site is conducted in a strictly controlled environment and presents no danger to the public. Please note that the weather, tide times and other operational requirements play a crucial part in trials planning and scheduling. Any one, or a combination of these factors, may mean that the activity has to be cancelled and rescheduled at short notice and it may not be possible to provide you with an updated schedule of work.

The flying of red flags at the range boundary, or the yellow flag at further points, indicates to members of the public that the range is active and there will be firing activities taking place. At those times the byelaws noted on the signs near to the flags are in force. If the red or yellow flags are not flying, the range is not active and there will be no firing activities undertaken and as such the byelaws are not in force.
