Zouches Farm

Zouches Farm

Zouches Farm is a microwave radio link site located on the top of Blows Downs at Zouches Farm, Caddington, Bedfordshire, England (gbmapping|TL045210). It was part of the London to Birmingham chain designed in the 1940s, and is now owned and maintained by BT Group.

In September 1970, short segments of the BBC Television series Doctor Who were filmed at the relay station, for a serial entitled Terror of the Autons.

The radio tower is also used for digital and analogue radio broadcasts; these are maintained by Arqiva.
