St Martha's Hill, Chilworth


The opening scenes with the pilgrims were filmed in my village, on St Martha's Hill, Chilworth, Surrey. I frequently walk up there in the summer, and inside the chapel there's an old photograph showing the actors entering the church in 1944.

As is described in Paul Tritton's great book "A Canterbury Tale - Memories of a Classic Wartime Movie". Also known as St-Martha-on-the-Hill
