Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Penshurst Place as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.
Named here by Penshurst Place’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Penshurst Place, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it.
