The tidally interacting pair of galaxies NGC 4410a/b is in a group of galaxies. Two members of the group form with NGC 4410 a chain linked by bridges of diffuse, but knotty, optical emission. The radio source associated with NGC 4410 is studied in detail with the aid of observations done with the Very Large Array. The source has a radio luminosity (L ≅ 7×1040erg s-1) comparable to low luminosity radio galaxies and is very asymmetric with respect to NGC 4410. Its size is much larger than the optical size of NGC 4410. Some features, if not all, of the radio source are probably related to the interaction.
