The Decca Station at Earl's Hill, South West of Stirling, Scotland

Earl's Hill is one of the highest locations in that part of Central Scotland, and also is used by a number of mobile radio masts. The main Decca mast (I think) is at the end of the white road overlay although I can't see any shadow for the mast (the other masts are self evident due to the shadows cast on the ground). I am guessing the location of the mast due to the location of the cable trench between the station building and the mast which can be seen due to the different colour of the grass. I also recall that there was an emergency mast which I think was due west of the main mast.

As noted on the other pages, the Earl's Hill site was one of the Dectra stations, and the mast was about 600ft tall.
