Built in the 15th century, Inveraray Castle is perhaps the most popular landmark seen in the series and is available to visit on the edge of Loch Fyne in the Highlands.Article continues below advertisement The Golden ArrowSource: Getty Images This may sound like a mountainside resort, but in A Very British Scandal, it’s the iconic dining train car. In reality, the Golden Arrow now runs on the Bluebell Railway, but for filming purposes, production was able to use a real Golden Arrow train at Tenterden, which is part of Kent and East Sussex Railway. In the series, this is when the Duke remarks that he saw Margaret at London’s Cafe de Paris club.Article continues below advertisement Goldsmiths HallSource: Getty Images Many might wonder where White’s, the St. James’s gentleman’s club, is filmed since it looks so iconic. And according to the show (and reality), the club is said to be the oldest in London. The actual Duke really was a member, but for the purposes of the series, filming took place in London’s Goldsmiths Hall, which is the headquarters of the Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths. Yes, that is a real thing, and fun fact, their headquarters has been at this location since 1339.Article continues below advertisement West Wycombe ParkSource: Getty Images Neither the Duke or Duchess shy away from grandiosity, as evidenced with the Duchess’s mansion where she announces her divorce and moves on from her first husband. West Wycombe Park is in the Buckinghamshire area, and was originally built in the 17th century by Sir Francis Dashwood, whose descendants still own the residence today.Article continues below advertisement Ealing Town HallSource: Getty Images Another popular filming location, Ealing Town Hall doubles as one of the many court locations seen in A Very British Scandal.
