Filming is taking place at the historic Shepton Mallet Prison this week. But what exactly is being filmed remains a mystery in the popular tourist destination, which is known for its ghost tours.
A spokesman for the prison told Somerset Live that a film production is taking place until March 31 and that the tourist attraction has been partially closed to the public. He said: “We currently have a production on-going at the prison. I haven’t been informed of what it is myself so unfortunately I can’t tell you what it is.
He confirmed: “Filming is taking place across the prison between March 27 and March 31. We will be back fully open on April 1.” Some events will still be taking place with guided tours running as usual from 2pm onwards on March 27 and 28, while ghost tours will run as usual from March 30 from 8.30pm.
