I would advise anyone who wishes to visit this site to wear wellies - the field is very boggy.  The site was probably chosen because of the dampness - it improves the efficiency of the antenna.

The grey unit in the enclosure appears to be a back-up generator.

These are GPS receive antennas. The transmit frequency is GPS locked because the service is in a synchronous group with Bourton-on-the-water

There are two, one for each transmitter (passive reserve with auto changeover). The unit next to the green cabin is indeed an auto start and transfer generator.
