The Museum’s Court Barn from Lee-on-the-Solent is home to BBC’s The Repair Shop series and is closed for private hire (filming).
Whilst the production team are busy filming for the TV show, the area around the barn is closed to the public, however you might be able to take a glimpse of the team in action. We politely ask our visitors to stay behind the barriers and not to take photographs or film them whilst they are working.
The production team and stars of the show are now away for their Winter break and will be back in the early Spring. Whilst they are off for their holidays we will have the barn open on selected dates to the public as part of our general visitor offer.
