Filming Spaces

In recent years, Stoke-on-Trent’s heritage buildings and landmarks have had starring roles in TV series, streaming service series and blockbuster movies.

SoulBoy, The Girl with All the Gifts, Jawbone, and The Colour Room were all filmed locally, as were Marvellous and the Oscar-winning short drama The Silent Child which starred and was co-produced by Caverswall-born Rachel Shenton.

Award-winning heritage attraction, Gladstone Pottery Museum is also home to The Irregulars, a Netflix production shown all around the world. Middleport Pottery was also globally televised in a series of Peaky Blinders.

Other filming successes include the Lloyds Bank advert which featured the iconic black horse galloping across the dramatic Chatterley Whitfield landscape and the recent Great Canal Journeys with Gyles Brandreth and Sheila Hancock continue to provide opportunities to help promote and secure Stoke-on-Trent’s reputation as a location with a supply of interesting, filmable cultural resources and heritage assets.
