What to Expect

Step into the world of radio history at The Radio Museum, where the story of the Washford Transmitting Station comes to life. Originally opened in 1993 at Tropiquaria, the museum began with a modest collection and a mission to share the region's role in the development of UK broadcasting.

Explore rare equipment, original BBC transmitter components, vintage radios, and a vast archive of literature and recordings. Whether you're a radio enthusiast, researcher, or simply curious, there's something here for everyone.
