🛰️ Swingate transmitting station

The Swingate transmitting station is a facility for FM and DAB radio transmission in the village of Swingate, near Dover, Kent. For many years there were four lattice towers with a height of 111 metres (364 ft). This station was one of the first 5 Chain Home Radar stations completed in 1936 and was originally designated AMES 04 Dover. The broadcast transmitting antennas are attached to what was the middle tower; microwave link dishes and mobile telephone antennas were spread across all three towers. The south tower was dismantled in March 2010, as a result, only two remain.
