Hadfield is a medium sized town located in North Derbyshire

Walking around the village of Hadfield was very strange, as even though it was the first time I had been there, everything seemed very familiar. This of course was because Hadfield is the real name for the village that was used for most of the filming of the now famous BBC comedy series The League of Gentlemen.

If you would like a map of the various filming locations and points of interest then you can pick up a free map from the shop at the top of the main road. This shop also sells lots of League of Gentlemen merchandise.



If you have never heard of the league of gentlemen (shame on you!) then I would recommend the following website which has lots of info on the series.
