This month's pylon was submitted by a guest contributor. It is very different to the larger pylons that we are all used to seeing and is to be found near Uckfield in East Sussex. More details on its exact location would be very welcome.

How pyloneriffically exquisite!
The bleak yet ever so charming simplicity of the parallel lines, red like the fire of the heart, pointing skywards in an almost defiant, stand-offish gesture against the chains of modern society. Its very angular and simplistic structure seems to reference the art of select ancient civilisations such as Egypt and Aztec, hinting at a religious significance of some sort which reinforces the pointed tip, overall creating what some may dare to interpret as a callback to the ancient times of polydeitic worship, disguised as a necessity of the electrical society and yet still standing strong in a gesture which has to be admired for its audacity.
I applaud your taste, Pylon of the Month.LikeLike
