For my production i need 3 main locations. These include a bar, a secluded street, and a run down house.
The bar i am asking to use is the Bell in Stilton, it's a lovely old fashioned place, and would be easy to transport all teh actors and additional help there.
The house to be used is a little tricky to find, as i need a place with minimal furniture, and preferably made out of wood.

Danika said i can use her great grandmas house. It's old fashioned, practically empty and seems perfect for what i need.
EDIT - 11th Feb
Found out today that I can't use the house, Sadie (Danika's cousin) said they had already filled it with furniture to use for storage. After a minor panic, thought about mroe locations and decided to contact the church, the old Rev was nice and would let me, but since he's not in charge any more will have to contact Doug, found his details in the scan.

Not allowed to film at the church either, apparently I'm not 'representing the Christian Church how [they] see fit.' It's not like i'm raising religious debates. Now is the time to panic... Currently in Beverley until Thursday, unable to do much about visitng locations around peterborough.

Mum has a friend at work whose mum is a caretaker at a victorian school in Milton Keynes. She's also getting confirmation about the Bell later today. Her friend, Craig, said he could get the keys and i could use the school to film on teh weekend. It'd take a 2 hour drive but hey, it's the best place i've got so far!
... Losing hope with the project very quickly, contacted Craig to confirm everything and his mum refused to let me use the school. Final chance before i run out of time, i'll be trying to use a barn and the cortyard or back rooms at the Bell. May go to Wansford and get some shorts there, lovely place for streets and has a nice cobbled bridge. Would use the Haycock hotel there, but according to a friend they don't like renting out time on the cheap.

Tried using the bell for the house but didn't have the right scenery feel for me. Going to refilm those bits at my Dads old victorian house with Hattie and Chris and edit the last half next week ready for our first viewing of our projects.
