Harbertonford is a tripole with an added shadow that was installed to support the O2 Installation. The tower has 4 horizontal logs for receiving Beacon Hill and a fifth one above them for transmission so presumably, like Mount Vernon, the white cylinder shields something other than a broadcast aerial. (We've had confirmation from Neil Byng (M1CFK) that the top cylinder is a 3uk /tmobile tx aerial, under the mbnl umbrella). Harbertonford was built by the IBA to serve about 500 people in Harbertonford and Austin's Close. It entered service on 9-May-1986.
