Not sure which of the mast this is, I usually leave the high stuff but it was a nice day and the padlock had been left open! These are from a few years ago, wish I'd have taken the cam up there with me as the view was stunning. Also my buddy with the cam didn't get any shots of me at the top after having me stand there for what felt like forever .

Probably been done before but I don't have much to show on here that isn't already posted somewhere and who could resist...





Be lucky.

Thanks was a perfect day for it, a nice summer like we used to get

Im not sure how high it is but it might be mentioned somewhere I'll have to check. I have a full-shot of it but I can't upload right now.

I used to have a list of all the transmitters up there. One is a police one.

Judging by the shape of it, I'd say it's a police transmitter.

A friend used to live right next to one and his PC's speakers would pick up their comms!
