Nice video. I did this place and managed to get it light up purple at night time. Amazing drone footage but one of my lowest viewed vids. This place is awesome. Thanks
As a local you know you are home when you see Emley Moor tower from the M1. Was purple at the Queens funeral, drew crowds of cars/ people from miles around. Very moving and to drive home and see all the local buses with destination signs stating simply 'Thank You Maam', very moving night. That sign about falling ice may date from the 60's, it was a very real issue for the previous tower which sadly collapsed in March 1969 and actually was even taller. It reached as high as the twin towers did in New York but was a guy type tower, not freestanding.
It’s pronounced Ar ki va. When I was working in radio had a visit and went up to the viewing platform where all the transmission kit for radio is located . 7 minutes in a small lift inside. There’s a pendulum showing how much it sways in the wind. Got a certificate to say I’d been up it.
Visited this place many a time over the years as i live not massively far from the tower. Always been mesmerised by the sheer size of the structure. Had some strange experiences there too as its a prime dogging spot, so if you get 'flashed' at, theyre interested 😂 lol
