Grainshore Farm, ME3

Grainshore Farm covers 1,300 acres of open marshland and grass fields with uninterrupted views across to the Thames. The farm offers 8km of river frontage, with accessible tracks leading right down to the water, shingle beaches, and wide expanses of unspoilt landscape. Its combination of water, marshes, and open sky creates a raw, cinematic backdrop ideal for productions needing scale and atmosphere.

Set at the top of the land, the main farmyard includes Dutch barns, modern 1970s-style farm buildings, and open hardstanding areas, while closer to the river lie the ruins of WWII bunkers and magazine houses, relics that add striking texture and history to the site. With cattle grazing the fields and vast stretches of watercourse, Grainshore Farm is both expansive and adaptable, offering endless scope for film and photography.
