Remote steading cctv

[Agri Spec Solicitor]

Our number 2 steading is 1km from home. There is line of sight vision from barn top to barn top, but not sure if it is an exact straight line due to odd trees. The steading is accessed from the highway by a 300m lonning from the N and the same from the S.
There is no internet on the steading but it could be installed easily enough. We have internet in the main farmhouse.
We usually have someone like a residential tenant living on site but not always so we are concerned about unwelcome visitors especially at night.
It would be great to have a recording of movements on or off the site and better still if we could access it on an i phone. The quality of the image needs to be good enough to identify a person or a car registration number.
Maybe someone has a similar problem which has been solved.
I hope someone can help.Thanks.

Not sure where you are but we are busy getting quotes from these guys for high speed broadband with wireless cameras for a couple of sites https://www.alncom.co.uk/

You can also get CCTV that uses mobile data to stream activity to your mobile/computer. DIY or use professional installers.

Lower initial capital cost than installing broadband I suspect....

Have a chat to the support boys at Solwise https://www.solwise.co.uk/wireless-outdoor-bridging.htm (Other companies are available ) about kit to create a wireless bridge to get internet to your site. 1km should be straightforward. Probably suggest something like this https://www.solwise.co.uk/wireless-outdoor-bridging-el-ens500ext-ac.html
Then you just need a decent quality IP camera & something to record to

Thanks everyone for the advice above.
I have followed up those leads and I am making progress.

Agricamera are surely worth approaching.

Pointless, give yourself the pleasure of being able to view and rewind when you are robbed. Pointless spend.

I know someone with one of these, apparently he has it on a £4 month data contract as it only uses data when you look at it or review recorded content. He has set times for it to be active (night time) and if anything sets it off he is notified

Have a look at this for the kit you need: https://help.ui.com/hc/en-us/articles/205197750-airMAX-Which-product-should-I-use-

Ubiquiti are often considered market leaders. You'll need two of their devices to make the "hop" from farmhouse to steading, then you can add in whatever CCTV etc. you want. Their bigger kit goes over 100km, and they have plenty of options in the 1-5km range.
