Spotlight: Timber Mill Grange
Timber Mill Grange in Berkshire features a four-storey 18th-century water mill, with the river flowing through the building and original machinery still in place, creating a dramatic and atmospheric setting for filming and photoshoots. Alongside it, the Georgian main house offers elegant interiors, formal lawns, and river views, providing a refined contrast within the same location. Surrounding gardens, riverbanks, woodland, and open fields provide multiple, varied backdrops on one site.
Historic variety
Our locations offer more than just historic houses; there’s a rich variety of traditional buildings across the centuries. From the charming boathouse at Pippin Hall to the 18th-century timber-framed threshing barn at Woodpecker Farm and the atmospheric derelict farmyard at Bridgeway Farm, these sites provide diverse backdrops steeped in history. Granaries, stables and barns give productions the flexibility to capture interiors and exteriors with authentic period character, far beyond the main house.
Farmhouses from the 18th century
Our collection of 18th-century farmhouses offers a wide range of rural homes with plenty of character across England. Set within organised farmland, yards, and outbuildings, these properties combine practicality with period charm, offering authentic interiors and exteriors that reflect the style of the 1700s.
Grand & Stately
The 18th century (1700s) brought a new level of elegance and proportion to rural architecture. Across our locations, you’ll find grand country houses, stately manors, and period mansions with formal gardens, walled courtyards, and richly detailed interiors. These historic estates offer authentic interiors and exteriors, often with multiple complementary backdrops in a single location, providing versatile settings for filming, TV, and photography.
Spotlight: Topsy Farm Estate
Topsy Farm Estate’s 18th-century heritage is centred on its grand Grade I-listed neo-classical manor house, built in 1796, with opulent interiors, a sweeping staircase, and period character, set within formal lawns and walled gardens also from the 18th-century.
The estate also includes historic farm buildings, stables, a separate tithe barn, and several 18th- and 19th-century cottages in the village and across the estate, offering a range of authentic interiors and exteriors. Beyond these, the wider grounds provide woodland, waterways, and rustic farmyards, adding variety and making it a great choice for takeovers, filming and photoshoots.
