Site information

Three 4G 800 + 1800

EE 5G information is an estimate.

Additional site numbers, 2G/3G NBs and 5G PCIs

Arqiva site number is 164726, O2 site number is unfortunately unknown. Site numbers taken from planning application 20_00568_FUL.

2G BTS is 8537 on LAC 21785 (with ARFCN 115 for 11x sector, 113 for 12x and 114 for 13x). 3G NB is 1646 on LAC 21734 (standard 5MHz block only).

Upgrades may happen to the 4G/5G deployment from the 21st of October 2024.

Not sure whether O2 would have SA support on this site, I know it's covered by 5G Ultra on Vodafone. O2 uses the NRARFCN 633696 if that's any use to anyone. I believe O2 uses PCI 9 for the 11x sector, 7 for the 12x sector and 6 for the 13x sector. Vodafone is slightly different since I believe it might use PCI 3 for sector 1 (see gNB 4445).

Upgrade information

I believe this site is due for upgrades soon, but B40 seems to have reverted to the 1x5 sector which hasn't been seen since 2022 between 7/10/2024 and 12/10/2024. Also happened to 104118 too.

Possible that B3+8+n28 is coming soon.

Image information

Main site image on the table taken from Gloucester Docks, antenna on the left seems to be Cornerstone on the 3x sector. I think the antennas on the right are for both MBNL (sector 3) and Cornerstone (one to far right, 2x sector). Additional site images attached below.
