Emley Moor mast...

 or transmitting station is a telecommunications and broadcasting facility on Emley Moor, 1 mile (1.6 km) west of Emley, in Kirklees, West Yorkshire, England (national grid reference: SE2219712899). The most visible feature of the structure is its 1,084-foot-tall (330.4 m) concrete tower, which began transmitting in 1971 and is a Grade II listed building. It is the tallest freestanding structure in the United Kingdom, seventh-tallest freestanding structure in the European Union, fourth-tallest tower in the European Union, and 24th-tallest tower in the world.

The tower's current official name, Arqiva Tower, is shown on a sign beside the offices at the base of the tower, but it is commonly known as 'Emley Moor mast'.

Thought it would do nicely for WidWed structures today - thanks Bob  ;)
