Greenpeace volunteers hang banner at Menwith Hill spy base, North Yorkshire
Two of the climbers on the radio mast left the base after spending
several hours keeping the occupation going. A further two remained on site.
In the late evening, the final two Greenpeace volunteers ended the occupation of Menwith Hill
spy base by climbing down
from the radio mast they had occupied for 15 hours. The
descent came at the end of American Independence day. The
two climbers gave themselves up to Ministry of Defence police.
