| Stopped here on the way back from a camping trip in Norfolk. The Peterborough mast seems to be located on a point where the Fens end and the hills start, close to the border with Northamptonshire. Since the previous photos from 2006, the mobile phone operators have vacated the mast, and the Sutton Coldfield RBS aerials have changed from two Amphenol 7410000 log periodics to two 6 element yagis. Also the Peterborough DAB antennas were omitted from the 2006 pictures. |
| In this photo are shown the Alan Dick National FM and DAB antennas, the Sutton Coldfield RBS aerials, and the Radio Cambridgeshire antennas. |
| National FM and DAB. Mean height 133m. |

| The modern transmitter building. The BBC motif is in the centre of the photo. It must have been rescued from the previous building. |
