3About Holme Moss
Holme Moss perches on the Pennine watershed between Yorkshire and Derbyshire, reached via the dramatic A6024 Woodhead Pass or A628 trans-Pennine routes. This exposed moorland plateau, over 520 metres high, offers challenging driving through wild peat bog terrain with frequent mist and strong winds. The towering red and white BBC transmission mast, standing 228 metres tall since 1951, dominates the skyline for miles around.
