TBH I doubt an indoor aerial will work in your location, you should be receiving from Black Hill, which is a main transmitter but it's transmission power on digital is relatively modest. It might be possible after switchover when DTV signal strengths will be increased.

Get a One For All Indoor Amplified Freeview/DAB Aerial from Argos.

open carefully if it dont work take it back!!

I have two of them one sitting on a "beer Cooler" & the other on the TV.
One being upstairs ( about 15 foot from the window ) the other downstairs in the kitchen but close to a window. That one has a splitter on the cable with "feeds" my main TV (that also has Virgin+ on that one) & a Wii plugged in.

Not sure about signal strength here. Was told years ago, That if I got a snowy signal for channel 4 ( being in Wales we only got S4C in those days) from my roof top. Then a boosted in-door would work. Its that one ( yes one is that old) That picks up Free view upstairs.

Give it ago the worst that could happen is a second trip to Argos. Ok perhaps its not worth it!!!
