If these are the towers im thinking about they were felled recently due to not being required any longer......
BT has marked the end of an era with the demolition using explosives of the remaining four tallest radio communications masts at the company's Rugby radio station site. The landmark 820-foot masts have dominated the Midlands skyline - alongside the M1 and A5 on the borders of Warwickshire, Northamptonshire and Leicestershire - since the opening of the former Empire radio communications centre in 1926. They took two years to construct. Eight other 820-foot masts were demolished at Rugby in June 2004. The site is still home to more than 200 masts, the tallest of which is 186 feet tall. -------------------------------------------------------- --- In [email protected], Terry Streeter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I was playing around with Google Earth yesterday, tracing down the line > of the Farmer's Bridge flight on the Birmingham & Fazeley canal.
