We received a few photos over the years about the foundations that are left on site, thanks to all the contributors. We've decided to post the latest ones above.
They were taken and supplied by Bushy in Dec 2025. Bushy also reported: "The road to the tower site has been torn up and made impassable to vehicles. Was a pain to walk; dips, cutouts, and piles of sand. The concrete blocks are still present. There is a odd pipe thing. The pipe is about 10cm diameter, comes out of a concrete block in the ground along ~3m and then back into another concrete block with nothing else near it."
