... that the Durham police mast was designed to be slender to minimise the impact on views to Durham Cathedral? Source: "This one-off elegant design in reinforced concrete was a response to the sensitive site overlooking Durham Cathedral. Concrete enabled a slender mast to be built within the required wind tolerances, to avoid bending which would distort the narrow radio frequencies. The tripod base enabled the mast to be made still more slender while meeting this very precise brief." from: "County Police Communication Tower, City of Durham - 1350340". Historic England. Retrieved 21 November 2022. and "Officially the County Police Communications Tower, it was made of precast, reinforced concrete, allowing for a rigid, but slender structure that would not block views of Durham Cathedral." from:Conner, Rachel (15 February 2017).

Overall: @Dumelow: Good article. Personally I find alt1 to be a bit boring but find alt0 to be good enough for me to approve. Will have to AGF on the offline citations. Onegreatjoke (talk) 19:05, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
