This location recce document summarizes a potential filming location behind a Poundland store. The two-story building provides decent space and was suitable for the gritty theme of the project due to its worn bricks and walls. Access is via bus and walk through town. Potential impacts on deliveries could be minimized by camera settings. No special power, catering, toilets or phones would be needed on location. Filming space is approximately 7 paces and the main potential risk is tripping on the back door step. The gritty brick walls and balanced daylight provide aesthetic value for potential camera shots.
