FILMING IN AXBRIGE!
A film company will be filming a comedy in various locations in Axbridge early next week.
They have letter dropped a number of areas in Axbridge to let people most affected know of the plans, which include filming in The Square, Mendip Close and in the Children’s Play Area (for one afternoon)
To facilitate the filming, parking in the Square will be suspended on Tuesday 18 March and Wednesday 19 March.
Axbridge Town Car Park will remain open but the north area of the car park (behind the central reservation) will not be available for parking on these days. The company will manage the closure and retain accesses within the car park. Cars in the area affected are asked to please vacate by 5pm on Monday evening.
Moorland Street Car Park is unaffected. The furlong car park at the end of Penn Way will be open on Monday and Tuesday – just closing on the Wednesday to facilitate filming in the play area.
Every effort will be made to manage the restrictions and traffic to minimise the inconvenience to residents and visitors alike. We do appreciate it does make things more difficult for these few days but hope you will join us in making the company welcome, enjoy the occasion and help promote our lovely Town.
