About the real place

Old Amersham sits in the Misbourne valley below the later railway suburb of Amersham-on-the-Hill. Its High Street developed as a market and coaching centre, leaving a strong collection of old inns, timber-framed buildings, Georgian frontages and St Mary's Church.

The contrast between the preserved old town and the modern transport hub above it is useful for visitors to understand. Amersham Museum, housed in historic High Street buildings, provides local context on crafts, commerce and the arrival of Metropolitan Railway growth. The filming streets are best explored on foot once you reach the old town.
