Greenwich naval college

The old college site is huge with many striking buildings, and the fact that the site can be closed to the public means that it's an ideal location to shoot movies; in fact, it's one of the most popular shooting locations in the UK.
Occasionally, the College does actually stand in for a naval college on screen [Annapolis (2006)], or at least a naval building [The Bounty (1984)], or a college of a non-naval nature [Starter For Ten (2006)]. Quite often the imposing architecture is used to stand in for official buildings, such as the Pentagon [Shining Through (1992)], The Russian National Fine Art Repository [Octopussy (1983)], or the fictional Magisterium's palace [The Golden Compass (2007)]

Frequently, the roads through the college are used to portray London streets - especially for scenes involving stunt work, or period films. These movies include Sherlock Holmes (2009), Patriot Games (1992), Shanghai Knights (2003), The Wolfman (2010), Stage Beauty (2004), What a Girl Wants (2003), National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets (2007), The King's Speech (2010), and The Mummy Returns (2001).
