Who's hooked on Downton Abbey?
Ever wonder where all those amazing scenes are shot? We made a list of where they shoot some of them.
let us know what you think of the show.
Highclere Castle in Hampshire was used for exterior shots of Downton Abbey and most of the interior filming. The servants' quarters and working areas and several "upstairs" bedrooms were constructed and filmed at Ealing Studios.
The village of Bampton in Oxfordshire was used to film outdoor scenes, most notably St Mary's Church and the library, which served as the entrance to the cottage hospital. First World War trench warfare in France was filmed in rural Suffolk near the village of Akenham specially designed for period war scenes. Haxby Park, the estate Sir Richard Carlisle intends to buy in Series 2, is part of Waddesdon Manor in Buckinghamshire. Greys Court in Oxfordshire was used as the family's secondary property, into which they proposed moving and calling 'Downton Place' due to financial difficulties in the third series. Also in the third series, Bates imprisonment was filmed in Lincoln Castle in Lincolnshire.
