Emley Moor transmitting station
Emley Moor transmitting station is a telecommunications and broadcasting facility on Emley Moor, west of Emley, in Kirklees, West Yorkshire, England (national grid reference: SE2219712899). The station's most visible feature is its tall concrete tower, which is a Grade II listed building. It is the tallest freestanding structure in the United Kingdom,〔(Ofcom | How TV transmitters transformed and towered over the UK )〕 7th tallest freestanding structure in the European Union, 4th tallest tower in the European Union, and 24th tallest tower in the world.
The tower's official name "Arqiva Tower" is shown on a sign beside the offices at the base of the tower but it is commonly known as "Emley Moor mast".
==History==
The tower is the third antenna support structure to have occupied the site. The original lattice tower was erected in 1956 to provide Independent Television broadcasts to the Yorkshire area. It entered service on 3 November 1956, transmitting Granada TV programmes on weekdays and ABC TV programmes at weekends. It was replaced by a taller guyed mast, identical to the structure at Belmont transmitting station in Lincolnshire in 1964. The dismantled lattice tower was rebuilt at Craigkelly transmitting station.
