GREAT ORMES HEAD
| Photos by Jack Richardson | Page last updated: 2022-03-03 |
| Came up here on a family day out. The Great Orme overlooks Llandudno as well as a fair part of the North Wales coast. Pretty sure Holyhead Mountain was visible in the distance, but couldn't spot the Isle of Man or Cumbria on this visit. |
| I remember coming up here as a kid, and I'm sure I remember the dish at the bottom right having Mercury Communications written on it. Obviously changed now. |
| 96.3 and 105.7 antenna |
| Located just behind the tower is this yagi. I wonder if it's the feed for Classic from Holme Moss (or Heart from Moel-y-Parc)? [Ed]. From Great Ormes Head, Holme Moss is on a bearing of 81 degrees, Moel-y-Parc is 110 degrees. The satellite view on Google maps of the building wall shows it aligned at about 110 degrees, therefore I conclude it is receiving from Heart from Moel-y-Parc. |
| 101.6 antennas |
| Llandudno |
| Snowdonia mountains. The A55 skirts between the mountains and the coastline here. |
| Looking towards Anglesey. Not really visible in this photo but Llanddona will be somewhere in between the sun and the tower. |
