About this space

Dowry Square in Hotwells Bristol is a perfect film location for period productions. This beautiful Georgian square was constructed 300 years ago in the early 18th century, retains its original features and now incorporates a gorgeous central garden.

As well as offering the opportunity to film in the garden, we have had filming in the streets of the square using some of the Georgian exteriors. We can also offer filming inside some of the historic houses in the square.
