There is one in Strabane that I drove past several days on the way to a job I had to do at a school up that way. It was impressive, but I didn't have a camera on me. According to wikipedia it just shades the Tullamore one at 1002ft. Kind regards

According to my Aeronautical Chart (just happen to have one lying around, actually it's on my wall) your mast is even TALLER at 1031 feet! Wiki says that Tullamore is 952 feet! I think I'd trust the Aeronautical Chart before Wikipedia! I also learned that the mast in Strabane is the TALLEST structure in Ireland, and that the one at Tullamore is the 2nd tallest structure in Ireland! I didn't know that! I'll have to put it in the title!

I see! An aeronautical chart for pilots? This would have to be correct, no doubt. You may want to edit wikipedia on this one Alan (just a suggestion), but both of these are TALL! I will have to get a photo of the one in Strabane, although I am rarely over there these days. Kind regards
