Entire National Trust site Belton House closed for rumoured Doctor Who filming

An entire National Trust site has been closed for filming with the 60th anniversary edition of Doctor Who rumoured to be shooting there. Belton House near Grantham is a popular historic venue, especially with families visiting during the summer holidays.

The manor house and estate will be closed for a time this summer as film crews take over. A Doctor Who fan page reported that the upcoming special episode is being filmed there despite the BBC not commenting on the speculation.

Lincolnshire Live reports that the 60th anniversary episode will bring back actors including David Tennant and Catherine Tate. Belton House has been used for filming purposes before, having featured in the BBC's 1995 TV adaptation of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice starring Colin Firth as Mr Darcy.
