Need help with identifying a Cornerstone site

Hi, I need some help with identifying a Cornerstone site. I've just ran into an unknown eNB on O2, which is very clearly a Vodafone host site. Nothing appears up for 21184 for Vodafone and there hasn't been any recent works as far as I know (other than some stuff with 103205/3205 which still broadcasts under the same eNB).

I had a Vodafone SIM on at the same time (Firsty on Play PL) but it didn't pick it up.

Is there anyone who might be able to help locate the site?

Shows band 20 connection to 121184
 
Scrap those thoughts of 103205, usually 11x sectors are North/East judging by Cellmapper, I would have been West of it.

I'm looking at My Network and I'm not noticing much and I can't really imagine much cells of fitting the criteria. I do recall Vodafone doing something south of where I picked the eNB up, I can't imagine the mast would be anywhere in a west direction. Not sure where the location of the mast would be though...

I do wonder whether it could be a micro but I genuinely can't see it being one

If only I could remember where this site having works was...

Usually people give a postcode or location for help?
Wonderful name there 😂

The postcode would have been approx GL1 1LP when testing, problem is I had connections from quite a few masts in that postcode area (5 to be exact) on both O2 and Vodafone

I'd assume its one of 111440 or 105980 based on the antenna direction. Connections on the other masts would narrow it down for sure, might be worth mentioning those. Could also be a further away mast, but I'd start with those 2.

I've seen 111440 and 105980 about 9 days ago if that helps

I've had connections from 103971, 102929/16484, 102928, 102982 and 105150 (also seen 104118 and 102988 today)

The new eNB seems to be a vendor swap, which only takes a few days, a week at most. Fastest I've seen is Three swapped my local tower in 2 days. It might still be one of the 2
111440 has been vendor swapped before judging by maps or something like that (before Huawei ban), I'm not sure what vendors O2 primarily uses. EE did recently add band 20 there from what I can tell but I don't know if that would make a difference?

My bets are on 105980 right now but I can't be certain, waiting to see what signal strength (max RSRP) it was when the mast appears on Cellmapper
 
I tried having a look at the postcode you provided, and for any masts near eNBs 111440 and 105980. No luck unfortunately.

That's unfortunate, thanks anyways though!

If I see the mast again, I'll let you all know. Cellmapper still doesn't seem to have picked it up (may still be processing it, I don't know).

Seen it again, think it might be 105980 @RajSandhu2k
Interestingly, despite mapping 4 cells (110, 114, 130, 134) then I've either gotten none or one cell mapped on Cellmapper lol

(probably more likely to have mapped the EE cell that popped up)

Those cells seem to match up with what 105980 shows on Cellmapper for coverage

Thank god, did get it mapped on Cellmapper, now I get to drag it into place
 
Might be the same mast but I want to double check. Band 8 recently appeared on a new eNB 21183 on Vodafone. I'm wondering whether it would be the same site as this? It would make sense considering the sector should correspond to the estimated location and the fact it's only 1 digit off. Vodafone seemingly still broadcasts B1+20 from 5980.
