If you have any information regarding this production, the locations or, even better, some comparison shots please contact us. Images submitted must be in Landscape orientation, as would be seen on the cinema screen, not Portrait.

We are aware that there are films on the site that were added when the criteria for the inclusion of locations was very different from today and, as a result, there may be scenes missing from some productions. Please do not forward additional screen captures to us but bring the detail to our attention, for we do, and are, 're-addressing' these older entries as time allows.

Groombridge Place, Kent, plays "Longbourn," home for the Bennet family until inheritance passes it to cousin Collins.

Taken 10 years ago and sent in by Andre Schlecht from Hamburg. (SJ)

The Dining Room at Basildon Park, Berks. Information from Lyn Mistry, who is an NT room steward there, with our thanks. (SJ)

Sent in by Andrew Price who was impressed with the dining table. (SJ)

Stamford, Lincolnshire, standing in for the village of "Meryton." This is looking west down a transformed St Mary's Street as the troops turn into St George's Square.

Richard Gunn has matched the shot on St Mary's Street admirably. (SJ)

Another interior: several houses were used and are cited on internet sites, just a question of whether how it all matches up...the Octagon Room at Basildon Park Inside info from our NT Room Steward Lyn Mistry.

Most of the room was roped so Andrew P. sought the best angle. (SJ)

Basildon Park, Berkshire playing "Netherfield Park." Also seen in The Duchess also starring Knightley, as well as Marie-Antoinette and Dorian Gray.

Andrew matches nicely. (SJ)

Stamford again, St George's Square.

There was a lot of dressing here, with the corner completely covered, but the building in the centre of the now matches. SJ

Another interior, possibly Groombridge, where the gardens but not the house are open. Sutherland and Knightley.

  • 'Now' required

Groombridge once more: for the now a zoom lens from the garden may do the trick or maybe the owners have noticed this site.
