It's had it's centre front path grassed over, access now being at the side.
(Perhaps too many 'MarpleTourists' were walking up it to have their photos taken ! ? )



. . . . then straight ahead and round to the right ( about 200yds )
is the location used in the opening shots of Murder at the Gallop and Murder Ahoy :-



- the pub across the road is the Green Man and sells GreenKing IPA
(and nice cheese sandwiches !)

Hi to all you location scouts !
The locations of Denham, Amersham, Aldenham, Hilfield Castle, Miss Marple's cottage,
Millicent's ladies outfitters, King's Arms pub, etc. are fairly well documented for the
1961-3 films of Miss Marple, but the locations I'm particularly interested in identifying
include :

. . The gates to 'the Ackenthorpe estate'.

This pic is distorted- road curves more past gates. There is a tee junction to a busy
main road (with a double-decker bus route) about 100yds through the archway.
The railway line appears to be running NorthWest'ish.
Where is this?
( see 14-15minutes in on dvd or end title sequence )

. . !!! FOUND BY AlanF !!!


. . The grass field alongside a railway embankment with a
little stone bridge (over a stream/drain ? ) seen in the "you
look for the hook whilst I look for the slice" golf scene
( 31-32mins on dvd ) , {(the locomotive is D603, 'Conquest', a
Battleship class.)(anorak)}
.

. . in "Murder Most Foul", "N.C & A. Reeves Grocery &
Provisions - post office Barratt " shop on a village green,
alongside Mrs McGinty's cottage. (11-12mins and 16-17mins on dvd)
.
. .and in "Murder Ahoy", the village 'overlooking the estuary' with
NatWest bank and RAC reg'd hotel ( 15-17mins )


Thanks again - Ady
