Eight platforms
The old telecommunications tower was built in 1970 to provide microwave services to broadcasters and other customers. The technology then used to depend on 'line of sight' access to other towers and stations, and therefore was obstructed by poor atmospheric conditions sometimes. These days the systems have mainly been succeeded by better methods. Once the eight platforms were festooned with all manner of aerials and dishes, but today they are noticeably less decorated.
