There used to be a wooden tower on this site; details are still being searched.
In notes from 1979, supplied by David Bannear it states: "The Mt. Raymond tower was inspected on the 18th October 1979. New leg bases have been spliced-in since the last inspection in March 1978. I now consider that this tower is safe for another 10 - 15 years".
