Filming locations


Can anyone help with the locations this mini-series was filmed at. What Stately Home was used for the Aspen's mansion and where were the countryside scenes filmed? I cannot find anything about this anywhere on the Internet, and on the recent DVD release no info is given.

Have now received detailed information on the Filming locations for 'Love for Lydia' and am having them logged on this site in the usual way.

Hi
the country house in question is Foxhills, Ottershaw,Surrey ,UK,the former private residence is now a golf course,country club and restuarant, it was owned for a while by the Bank of Ireland and before that it was a private home of either an Austrailian or Irish meat marketing family(it could be the Vesty family, though not 100% sure. I used to live Ottershaw and have vivited Foxhills on many occassions and it really is a very beautiful estate

Hello again,

Do you know if the last scene in love for lydia was a real place or a studio?. I'd really like to know that if the veranda where they walk out on to in the snow was a real place and where is the field that they walk across in end as the titles start rolling.

Hi,

I've recently purchased an old house in Irthlingborough and been reliably informed by a couple of locals that some street scenes are shot in the High Street of Irthlingborough. I'm going to get hold of a copy of the DVD to confirm.

Regards

Yes I managed to get that info out of the archivist at LWT (as was) as you will see in the 'Filming Locations' section for Love for Lydia on this site. It's probably worth checking ebay as you may be able to get the DVD set reasonably cheap now.
