I'm now looking at setting up the hardware for the site.  The kit I'm looking 
at using is the Datalogic Skorpio 

http://www.mobile.datalogic.com/Datalogic-Skorpio_prd_prd61_1.html

which has 802.11b/g built in. I'm now looking to set up a WIFI access point 
and was looking for suggestions.  I'm guessing that I'm looking for either an 
outdoor unit or something with an external antenna.

The site is roughly 200yds long but is probably only 60yds wide and the AP is 
going to be at one end. I may at some point be able to place one AP at each 
end but this is not guaranteed.

I'd like to be able to cover as much  as possible. Anyone got any suggestions?
