Broadgate is based in Beeston, NG9, and falls within Broxtowe Borough Council. This unique location comprises an abandoned Victorian mansion alongside a fully derelict cottage, set within a substantial, tree-scattered plot that has been left to grow naturally over time. Offering an authentic, atmospheric backdrop that is increasingly difficult to source.
The property’s untouched condition provides genuine derelict interiors with exceptional character, removing the need for extensive scenic dressing to achieve an abandoned aesthetic. The Victorian mansion retains striking architectural features despite its weathered condition, while the separate cottage offers an additional backdrop options within the same location. Surrounded by mature trees and overgrown grounds, the estate delivers multiple filming environments across a single site.
The location has been designed to accommodate productions of all sizes, it’s an expansive site providing generous hardstanding areas suitable for unit bases, technical vehicles and larger crews, while the limited number of neighbouring properties allows for greater operational flexibility. As the property is vacant, filming and recces can be arranged throughout the day or night, offering exceptional scheduling flexibility.
Parking is available on the driveway, with extensive additional parking throughout the site. The nearest public transport links are Nottingham Station, approximately a 15-minute tram journey away, and Beeston Station, approximately a 20-minute walk or a short bus ride from the property.
The property benefits from a live three-phase electricity supply within the main building, alongside mains water, providing a significant advantage over many comparable derelict locations. The property does not have disabled access. Sound levels in the surrounding area are generally quiet, with only occasional noise from passing vehicles outside the site, making it suitable for many filming applications.
