’The Marconi Beam Wireless Stations of Somerset’ is a history of the county’s two main high-frequency point-to-point receiving stations located at Bridgwater and Somerton. The Bridgwater station was only active for around 15 years, whilst the Somerton station continued in its role in one form or another until 2000. Details of their ’sister’ transmitting stations at Bodmin and Dorchester are also included, as well as a fascinating history of the Chedzoy Experimental Radiotelephone Station, near Bridgwater. An overview of the UK’s Point-to-Point radio service is also featured to clarify the role played by the Somerset stations. Whilst modern technology has now superseded the international wireless network, the role of these stations cannot be underestimated, and it is right that their historical importance is recorded.
