After a tip off from Christoph, I searched out the film The Long Memory starring John Mills, which was shot in Gravesend in 1952 and came across these location photos on a blog that celebrates the work of set designers and scenic artists. There is blurry line here, between what is real and what is pretend. It raises questions about the authenticity of trying to capture the ambience of a place and recreate it, alluring though idea may be.
