Also in the picture is the Stokenchurch BT Tower, which is visible from miles around. This is a telecommunication tower built of reinforced concrete. It is one of the few British towers built of that material. Located 242 metres (794 ft) above sea level, it dates from 1963 and is 97.5 metres (320 ft) tall. There are four platforms at the top that are used to attach microwave transmission drums and other antennas. See also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokenchurch_BT_Tower
