FISHPOND HILL

Found the time the visit this site on a bright sunny day. It is located on top of the hill to the North West of Mansfield, and is up a private driveway. After chatting to the owner he allowed me to walk up to the site on his property.


It is impossible to find a place to get a full height shot of this tower as the area is surrounded by trees.


A band II folded dipole at the top transmits both ILR services, with two band III dipoles below for DAB.


Further round and the Band II dipole can be seen clearer, although the DAB dipoles are now end on.


The Radio Nottingham band II aerial array.




Band II aerial pointing towards Mapperley Ridge, still missing half an element.


Band II receive aerial pointing towards Holme Moss providing RDS data for Radio Nottingham.


Equipment compound. There were people working on the site at the time of my visit.
