Ben Tongue is a tower situated on top of, er, Ben Tongue, serving the small village of, er, Tongue. A surprisingly coherent piece of naming there. Was driving past very late in the evening and just grabbed these two shots with the last light of the evening as a placekeeper before some better ones arrive at mb21 Towers. Ben Tongue was originally a BBC landlord site which entered service in October 1980 to serve 570 people. Channel 4 was added on 4-Sep-1987. DSO was on 2 and 16-Jun-2010.
