Set in 50 acres of beautiful Sussex downland and with 45 original rescued historic buildings dating from the 13th to the 19th century, the Museum is a wonderful location for documentary, drama and venue filming. The site is ideal for authentic historic interiors and exteriors as well as general landscape views. The view along our Market Square makes a good street scene, with set dressing of course. We can accommodate early starts and late finishes, and always go the extra mile to help crews achieve what they strive for. There is also a good range of accommodation nearby.
