Full description

This brick structure with a pitched roof dates from 1939. The associated masts may be more modern.
A. Cattermole (HES), 26 June 2013.

According to (S1) the receiver building is much later than 1939 and replaces an earlier one constructed in 1962 which was similar to the old transmitting building (NHER 59210) which is still extant.
