The long wave transmitter is part of a network transmitting on the same frequency, the other transmitters being Droitwich and Westerglen. The station has three masts, which are all lattice structures with triangular cross section and insulated against ground. The northern of the two large masts is {{convert|153.6|m|ft|0}}, the southern large mast is {{convert|154.2|m|ft|0}} tall, while the third one is significantly lower.[2] One of the large masts is used for the medium wave transmissions and the other is used for the long wave transmitter. The third and smallest mast is the backup antenna. The original building was demolished leaving a much smaller building for the more modern transmitters.
