Purdown BT Tower, also known as Purdown Transmitter , is a 70.1 metres tall telecommunications tower in Bristol, England. Built in 1970 for the British Telecom microwave network, it is now used to transmit radio and provide mobile phone coverage.
The tower is located on a hill, Purdown, in Stoke Park in the Lockleaze suburb, about 2 miles north of the city centre. It is a prominent landmark visible from many areas of the city, and from major transport routes on the approach to the city, including the M32 motorway and Filton Bank railway. The tower is recorded as a Valued Landmark by Bristol City Council, and it has been featured in locally-produced media, such as the opening sequence of TV series Skins .
