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.

Set in France, this looks a bit like Surrey and the building was also seen in 'Game for Three Losers', 'Man at the Carlton Tower', 'A Place of One's Own', 'Joe MacBeth' and 'The House of Blackmail'. Geoff Dodd has resolved this one for us . . . Upper Court, Portsmouth Road in Esher, Surrey.

KC provides this view which replaces Geoff's earlier Google capture.
