Young Cassidy - LPA on the silver screen!!!!!

Today we found out something really interesting about our house.

It was used as a location in the 1965 film "Young Cassidy" starring Maggie Smith & Rod Taylor.

The above movie still was photographed in our actual front garden!

If you get an opportunity to see this film  look out for the scene with Maggie Smith talking out an upstairs window - that's our house!!!!  

The previous owner said that the film company tidied the garden and added the planting as well as dressing the window with a lace curtain.  I wonder did the film company also paint the door cream?

The reason this house was used as a location in the movie was that it still had working original sash windows.

Here's the Trailer of Young Cassidy

Here is interesting blog with further information about the filming of Young Cassidy in the local area.
