What Emley Moor transmitting station looked like in its prime.

A tall, smooth, tapered cylindrical reinforced-concrete pillar of uniform grey rising from a low compound of offices and service buildings, capped by a vertical steel lattice mast carrying antenna arrays; the tower dominates open moorland with a wide sky backdrop, has a narrow profile from distance and maintenance platforms, service attachments and dishes clustered near the top and base, and is set inside a fenced transmitter compound with access roads.
