Filming for a UK television series will shut two car parks next week as production vehicles are expected in a town high street.

Between 8am and 1pm on Monday (September 1) scenes will be shot in Talbot Road/High Street Car Park, opposite the Coach & Horses pub, Rickmansworth.

All spaces will be in use and unavailable to the public, while production vehicles will park on 20 suspended bays along High Street between Park Road and Church Street.

Bury Lane will then be closed between 1pm and 6pm, after Hertfordshire County Council previously granted permission for the road to be blocked off between Church Street and the corner of Ebury Road.

Access to Bury Lane Car Park will be possible up until 1pm and, after that time, cars already parked there will be given assistance to exit.

Three Rivers council leader Stephen Giles-Medhurst said: “This filming is for a UK television series, and while it may be a slight inconvenience to motorists at the time of filming, it is great to be able to support such projects in our district which will inevitably bring new people into the area and support the local economy.”

It comes after road closures for filming in Bedmond, Nash Mills, Radlett, Sarratt, and Hemel Hempstead were confirmed earlier this month.

Hyde Lane, Nash Mills, will be shut near Wood’s Farm from 7am to 7pm on Tuesday, September 9, and the following day, to allow for filming to take place.

The section of the Green immediately outside Sarratt Community Post Office will be shut between where the road forks and Dawes Lane, between 6am and 8pm on Thursday, September 11.

Filming will take place inside and outside the post office.

Part of Bedmond Lane, between Bedmond and Potters Crouch, will be shut from 6am to 8pm on Friday, September 5, to allow for scenes to be shot.

Filming has also been confirmed for High Street, Hemel Hempstead Old Town, but this will only require traffic to be held temporarily at various times tomorrow (Thursday, August 28) and on Friday, rather than a full road closure.

Stop and go signals will be used to halt traffic in Loom Lane, Radlett, between 8am and 6pm on Saturday (August 30).

The names of the companies booking use of the roads have not been confirmed. It is unclear whether all days are for the same production.
