English History and Film Locations

I posted this quite sometime ago, but with the increased recent interest in historic film and movie locations, I thought I would repost it in case you missed it.


Did you ever wonder where a movie was filmed, or see something in a movie that reminded you of somewhere you have visited? If so, copy and paste this link:
This site is so much fun as you can find out where many well-loved movies were filmed.
One of my all time favorite movies, Jane Eyre, in one of it's many incarnations, was filmed at Haddon Hall (for the Thornfield Hall scenes) in Derbyshire.
Chatsworth House also in Derbyshire has been used for Pride and Prejudice. Hardwick Hall was used for some scenes in Harry Potter, and Highclere Castle is Downton Abbey. You can check out my pages to the left to see pictures of my own visits to these places, and go to the site to find out information on the locations of your own favorite movies. Have fun!
