St George’s Quarter, Liverpool
Filming also took place across Liverpool’s historic St George’s Quarter, an area renowned for its impressive Victorian architecture and cobbled streets.
This section of the city centre features several iconic landmarks, including the Walker Art Gallery, World Museum, and Liverpool Central Library, all of which provide a striking historic backdrop, perfectly suited for immersive period film scenes.
National Waterways Museum, Ellesmere Port
The National Waterways Museum, often called the Ellesmere Port Boat Museum, also served as a filming location for Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man.
With its Victorian warehouses, narrowboat docks, and preserved industrial buildings, the museum provides an authentic backdrop for scenes depicting Britain’s industrial past. Its historic dock complex on the Shropshire Union Canal is one of the most complete surviving canal dockyards in the country, making it ideal for recreating the gritty, industrial world central to the Peaky Blinders universe.
Kelmarsh Tunnel, Northampton
Kelmarsh Tunnel, on the former Northampton to Market Harborough line, is a disused railway tunnel that proved ideal for filming.
Director Tom Harper described the brick-lined structure as “one of those treasures that you sometimes find when you’re filming.” He added that the tunnel’s enclosed nature allowed the production to shoot scenes with minimal public presence, creating a controlled and atmospheric setting perfect for the film.

Gas Street Basin, Birmingham
Numerous canals throughout Birmingham were used to film wartime transport and industrial backdrop scenes, a choice especially important given the show’s long-standing tradition of incorporating waterways into its gritty, atmospheric storytelling.
Calder Abbey, Calder Bridge, Lake District, Cumbria
This Grade I-listed ruined abbey and manor house played a prominent role in filming, providing the rugged, neglected wartime atmosphere essential to the film’s aesthetic. The production team spent approximately two weeks shooting on location, capturing both the dramatic interiors and the weathered exterior to enhance the period authenticity.
The Immortal Man is showing in cinemas and will be on Netflix on the 20th of March.
