The original transmitting tower of the BBC's television service. It operated from 1935 (official opening in 1936) until the outbreak of WWII and again after the war until the fifties, when it was replaced by the taller and more powerful Crystal Palace transmitter tower at Sydenham Hill.
The AP tower is now used as a relay for Freeview channels.
Viewers of a certain age may recall seeing this tower in the dramatic opening and closing captions of "Television Newsreel" in the fifties and sixties. |
