Did you know that Amberley Museum was one of the main filming locations for the 1985 James Bond Film ‘A View to a Kill’?
In September 1984 locations across Amberley Museum’s old Chalk Pits and Quarry Tunnel were transformed into the fictional Main Strike Mine. Items from the Museum’s collection took on starring roles in the film and there are plenty of photos that capture the drama.
Join this extended guided tour and delve into the detail of how the old Amberley chalk pits were transformed into a filming location nearly 40 years ago.
Discovery Days provide an opportunity to discover another side to the museum as part of an afternoon tour and hands-on experience led by our curatorial team.
