Marconi in Wales
Contemporary Welsh press record of Marconi's experiments
The page contains information about Marconi's experiments in Wales from April to July 1897, as recorded in the contemporary Welsh press.
The press record includes ten reports from various newspapers, such as the Evening Express, Weekly Mail, and South Wales Echo, detailing Marconi's experiments at Lavernock, Flat Holm, and Brean Down.
The family's reading of the evidence suggests a link to Great House Farm, but this is still being researched and verified, with some sources disagreeing on the details of the experiments, including the date of the first success and the direction of the Brean Down messages.
