Holme Moss Summit and Transmitter
Highlight • Structure
Transmissions cover North West England (mainly Greater Manchester and Cheshire) and most of Yorkshire; however, signals can be heard as far south as London and as far north as Scotland, whilst coverage can also be heard in Ireland and mainland Europe.
The area around Holme moss is also the watershed for the Rivers Don and Etherow. The River Etherow flows west and eventually ends up in the Irish sea (via the rivers Goyt, Tame and Mersey), whilst the Don's eventual destination is to the east and the North sea so, in this area, drops of rain landing just a few feet one way or the other determines which sea they flow into 140 miles apart.
