Question Buying an indoor freeview aeriel - no aeriel

Hi people of cable forum, I was hoping someone out there could give me a little advice on receiving freeview.

I've just got a second tv which has built in freeview. When we moved in we immediately got Sky so never need to get the aeriel sorted out. But now with the new TV in the back of the house where there is no aeriel I thought of getting one of those indoor ones from around £15.00. But now after some research I'm not sure that's a good idea.

I've done the wolfbane thing like a previous poster and I was hoping someone could make sense of it please. It's got Storeton at the top and Winter Hill underneath.
