Monitoring device on the power pole
The pole is marked "Boron treated 2013" and has a device with tag attached saying "Jacobs magnox DO NOT INTERFERE Call Jacobs/Magnox on [Phone No quoted]".
This is presumably ongoing monitoring associated with the nearby Hunterston A Magnox Nuclear Power Station, currently being decommissioned.
