The TV series "Murder Before Evensong," based on Reverend Richard Coles' novel, is set in the fictional English village of Champton St Mary in 1988. Although Champton St Mary is not a real place, the series was filmed primarily in and around the West Midlands of England, including actual locations such as Stourbridge, Gornal in Dudley, Bridgnorth and Worfield in Shropshire, as well as Staffordshire, Warwickshire, Leamington Spa, and Wolverhampton. Specific notable filming sites include Mary Stevens Park in Stourbridge, the village of Worfield near Bridgnorth (which stood in for Champton), Dudmaston Hall in Shropshire, and Chillington Hall in Staffordshire. These locations provide the quaint village backdrop for the murder mystery series featuring Canon Daniel Clement.
