Named here by Charlestown’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Charlestown, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.

“On 25 September 2008 Tim Burton filmed part of his Alice in Wonderland film here.” Wikipedia
