Hot Locations

Hammersmith & Fulham is a rich slice of urban life in a compact area of Inner West London. The range of locations and housing types we can offer the filmmaker are broad and, whatever you are filming, it is worth taking a look here.

The stately:

Hammersmith & Fulham has many affluent areas of well kept town houses dating from Georgian to Edwardian and some classic London squares with traditional railings and well kept central gardens. Across the waterfront there are some marvellous historic buildings, riverside walks, rowing clubs and moorings. Gentrified Fulham is particularly good for upmarket mews properties.

Fulham Town Hall has an excellent Stucco’d white marble exterior and some splendidly preserved Victorian rooms inside. Fulham Palace and its extensive riverside grounds is an equally tranquil and antique setting in the centre of London. The interior of Hammersmith Town Hall retains the stunning 1930s features, despite the modern 1960’s extension to the front.

Urban London:

Hammersmith & Fulham is a borough of extremes and there are a wide range of housing estates from late 19th century Almshouses to 1960s/1970s high-rise developments. Some of the architecture in the borough is stridently futuristic (none more so than the “Ark” office development in Hammersmith).

It is also a borough in which little remains static. For those looking for the demolished and partially built there are two huge developments currently in progress at White City and in the South End area of Fulham. These offer some interesting filming opportunities. For example, the slip road for the new White City shopping centre is built, but currently leads nowhere and is closed to traffic. Film makers currently have limitless access to a two lane road. Despite the rapid redevelopment all over the borough, there still remains some evidence of the Thames industrial past. Derelict and deserted Victorian warehousing can still be found.

There is are two great colourful markets in the borough; North End Road and, most notably, Shepherds Bush.

Open Space:

The borough has the full range of parks and recreation grounds in all sorts of sizes. In the North of the borough you will find a great expanse of heathland at Wormwood Scrubs. This urban wilderness has recently been conferred nature reserve status.
