About this location

Framlingham Castle is a castle in the market town of Framlingham, Suffolk, England. Its replacement, constructed by Roger Bigod, the Earl of Norfolk, was unusual for the time in having no central keep, but instead using a curtain wall with thirteen mural towers to defend the centre of the castle.. This heritage property has drawn film and television productions seeking period-appropriate settings. The combination of architectural character, formal and restricted visitor numbers makes it manageable for controlled shoots. Location managers planning UK shoots will find Framlingham Castle on Wikidata’s registry of documented filming locations, with a track record that spans multiple genres. Permit requirements, day rates, and exclusivity windows should be confirmed directly with the venue or relevant public body before committing to schedule.
