Cellmapper query

Can anybody confirm what is going on with this mast?

My interpretation from a bit of Googling is that a red border means the location of the mast is uncertain so the icon has been plonked down using a best guess.

This is the closest resemblance to a mast that I am aware of, and it’s two miles away. I’m not convinced.

Red means that the site hasn't been (manually) positioned within cellmapper - its position has been guestimated based on a triangulation of the available logged data.

Saying that, I've located this site now - its about 1mile East of where cellmapper guessed
A new-ish ESN site (too new for streetview) - Camarthenshire planning doc ref: E/39553. 2 sector site, planned with power and backhaul redundancy (generator and satellite link) looks like revised plans cancelled those

Oddly enough, it’s located exactly where the mast is in my second picture. You are correct, it’s closer than I thought.
 
are you sure? you didn't link where that one was, and i couldn't see a view from the streetview that is available

Here…

The mast in my pic is on the other side of the hedge. You can see the base of it as a white dot. I just added the “EE Mast” flag so I could find the planning app. It isn’t anything official.

Edit: No, I have it wrong. The planning application is located here…

that mast seems too far north-east compared to what is shown in the planning docs/photos - i think you'd also expect the planning docs to reference the mast as an existing structure (if it is/was indeed still there)

I’m over there the week after next. I’ll go and have a look.

Is it possible to correct the location of the mast in Cellmapper on the web interface? I use an iPhone so haven’t got the app.

That site must be up and running now as its correct location correlates with where I am having to point my dish for best 4G reception.

Thanks for digging out the planning application. There’s another closer approved SRN one I am keeping an eye on.
