Peaky Blinders: All the Filming Locations You Can Visit Ahead of The Immortal Man
A star-studded cast, including Cillian Murphy, Steven Knight, and Ellie Simmonds, graced the red carpet in Birmingham city centre on Monday night, March 2, for the world premiere of the new Peaky Blinders film, The Immortal Man. The premiere took place outside Symphony Hall, with the movie set to hit UK cinemas on Friday, March 6, and arrive on Netflix from March 20.
Key Filming Sites in the West Midlands
In anticipation of the release, fans can explore numerous filming locations across the region that played a pivotal role in the movie. The Black Country Living Museum, a popular tourist attraction known for its Peaky Blinders Nights, was extensively used for filming. Fans will recognise the museum's historic boat dock, which appears as Charlie Strong's Yard in all six series of the show. For The Immortal Man, the museum and region once again take centre stage, with scenes captured by the canal at Bumble Hole Nature Reserve in the Netherton area of Dudley.
Additionally, filming occurred at Digbeth Loc Studios in Digbeth, Birmingham, and along the canals off Gas Street in Birmingham city centre. These locations add to the authentic industrial backdrop that defines the Peaky Blinders aesthetic.
Historic Locations Across the UK
Beyond the West Midlands, several historic sites were utilised for the film. Arley Hall & Gardens in Northwich, Cheshire, is familiar to fans as Tommy Shelby's home from Series 3. Specific rooms, such as The Library serving as his office and the South Bay Bedroom for Tommy and Grace, were filmed here. The Gallery at Arley hosted the wedding breakfast table scene, while the Drawing Room was used for Polly's first meeting with Ruben Oliver.
The village of Port Sunlight, near Liverpool, provided the setting for Aunt Polly's home. Declared a conservation area in 1978, this village dates back to 1888 and is one of the finest surviving industrial worker villages globally, originally built for soap factory workers.
In Manchester, Victoria Baths on Hathersage Road doubled as the horse fair where Tommy meets May. This Grade-II-listed building, opened in 1906, is now a heritage and community venue. The Northern Quarter in Manchester also served as the backdrop for many of Tommy's running gun battles.
Formby Beach in Merseyside was the site of the dramatic confrontation between Tommy Shelby and Alfie Solomons at the end of series four. Owned by the National Trust, this beach features sandy dunes and coastal views, with historical elements like pre-historic footprints.
Little Germany in Bradford, West Yorkshire, with its high concentration of listed buildings, was used as the location for the Shelby brothers' warehouse. Meanwhile, the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway in Haworth village, near Bradford, filmed all train scenes, including the series one confrontation between Grace and Inspector Campbell.
These locations offer fans a unique opportunity to immerse themselves in the world of Peaky Blinders, blending cinematic history with real-world heritage sites across the UK.
