Real location - supplementary entry


Not one I have visited, yet but 'The Culture Show' devoted a special to film locations including 'The Wicker Man', 'Trainspotting', 'Kes' and several others.

Thanks for posting the link!

I'm a huge fan of 'Kes' - grew up in the area. I used to go cross-country running next to the ruined building where Billy finds the kestrel.

The film, of course, has legendary status in Barnsley!
