Watchet is a harbour town at the mouth of the Washford River on Bridgwater Bay, part of the Bristol Channel, and on the edge of Exmoor National Park.
Adjacent to the harbour is Watchet station. This is now an intermediate stop on the West Somerset Railway, a largely steam-operated heritage railway that links Bishops Lydeard, near Taunton, with Minehead.

Descrizione

Opened in 1933, the BBC West Regional Transmitting Station at Washford Cross housed the first broadcast transmitters in Somerset and was the first high-powered broadcasting station in the South West of England.

The Washford Radio Museum was opened in 1993 in time for the 60th anniversary of the Transmitting Station's opening and aims to describe its history as well as offer an insight into radio broadcasting in Britain from the 1920's through to its future in the new millennium.

The Museum contains photographs and technical information about the Washford station from the 1930's through to its present use broadcasting three radio programmes in the medium waveband to the South West of England and South Wales.

There are many items of early BBC equipment and ephemera, some rescued from the Washford station before its re-engineering in the late 1970's, as well as a collection of around 150 radios, radiograms and televisions.
