Kent Road
Kent Road
Kingston upon Thames, Surrey
Formerly known as Kingston Meat Market
The Kingston Meat Market used a cover a large area of southern Kingston Town Centre, by Kingston University. Once it closed down the land was redeveloped, and now has new University buildings, The Bittoms shopping centre, and a new housing development.
Based on surrounding landmarks, filming looks to have taken place on land now occupied by the University; however, parts of the wall seen in the story are still visible in the private car park of avanté.
