THE MOMENT ISLAND LANDMARK THAT'S STOOD TALL FOR MORE THAN 60 YEARS IS FINALLY TOPPLED
A NORTH Wales landmark has been brought down in a controlled felling.
The 106-metre-high Penmon transmitter mast on Anglesey has towered over the eastern tip of the island since 1962 until this week.
The former BBC mast broadcast a historic royal wedding and played an important role in the Second World War.
The Coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth on Wednesday, May 12, 1937, was beamed via the Penmon and Washford, in Somerset, BBC transmitters.
The Penmon mast, close to the Anglesey shore, was also vital in the development of Welsh broadcasting.
Transmissions on the now disused site - which looks set to be returned to a grassy field - started at Penmon on February 1, 1937, after a long campaign calling for Welsh regional programming.
