Thanks to Mike Smith for these photos from the Isle of Man, which were taken in June 2009. Last photo from Martin Deeley July 2013 Laxey was originally a BBC landlord site which entered service on 25-Mar-1977 to serve about 1450 people. Channel 4 was added in December 1984. DSO was on 18th June and 16th July 2009.

What's going on with all these logs? [Ed] The two horizontal logs on the left point towards Caldbeck. The original RBL source. The four vertical logs on the right point towards Douglas.

Below: This photograph was taken on July 21st, 2013 by Martin Deeley. Taken from the South Cape tram stop on the Manx Electric Railway, just outside of Laxey.
