Summary
City of London street confirmed as a filming location for The Crown Season 5.
About this location
Ironmonger Street is a short street in the Barbican area of the City of London. Reddit users on r/TheCrownNetflix confirmed that filming for The Crown Season 5 took place on Ironmonger Street, with production crews and equipment visible and the street being used for scenes set in the 1990s. The Barbican area’s mixed architectural character, with Victorian warehouses alongside post-war residential blocks, provides a specific urban London texture that is distinct from the more regularly filmed West End and South Bank locations. The location confirmed The Crown’s use of this specific City of London streetscape.
The street provides a realistic working environment for productions requiring authentic urban settings. Traffic management considerations mean that production companies typically work with the local council highways department to arrange road closures or partial restrictions during filming. The area has been noted by location scouts for its combination of period architecture and practical accessibility from major transport links. Productions using the street should expect to work with local authority filming offices to co-ordinate permissions.
