WALSDEN SOUTH
| Photos by Lee Goulding | Page last updated: 2023-09-17 |
| This site provides television and FM signals to the valley of the Walsden Brook between Todmorden and Littleborough on the West Yorkshire / Greater Manchester boundary. Walsden South was originally an IBA landlord site which entered service on 10-Aug-1979 to serve 830 people. This was as a relay of Winter Hill with site number 103.67. In 1982 ITV was re-attributed to Emley Moor and Walsden South was given a new site number of 104.66. Channel 4 was added on 12-Jun-1987. The two BBC channels were re-attributed to Emley Moor prior to DSO at Winter Hill. |
| This photo shows the mast, including the receiving aerials which although appearing to point in the same direction actually receive their feeds from 2 different sites - UHF from Walsden and FM from Cornholme both of which are roughly north of the site. |
