Not Ashford CAT


This structure could be seen from miles away.  In fact, with a telescope it could be see from another county.  I believe this was the third structure in the same place. all built for the same purpose.

Further clue:  Away from my usual GTP area.  Taken when I had a car about 9 years ago. I could catch a bus there now though.

When it was built the locals said it would be more keeping with being on a farm.

MartinR  The structure probably looked the same as this at one stage while it was being built, but it's being demolished in this photo. - Not Hempstead Valley.
