Burbage Derbyshire NGR: SK044726 Maps: Google  Bing (Ord Surv) Site Height: 353m       Structure Height: 17m Digital TV: BBC A: 47 D3&4: 41 BBC B: 44 BBC Radio:   Ind. National Radio: Ind. Local Radio: Digital Radio: Comments: Burbage is a relay of Winter Hill (via Buxton)

In the southwest part of Buxton is a small relay serving (probably) the area on the hill directly on the side of the hill screened from Buxton itself. I couldn't see any aerials pointing to it, but from the photo it seems likely. On Holmfield is a small pathway between houses that leads to Buxton Country Park. The transmitter is located on a wooden pole in a corner of the field nearest the road behind some trees. Burbage was originally a BBC landlord site which entered service in December 1987.
