Chatham Historic Dockyard relaunched its popular Call The Midwife Official Location Tour and unveiled a brand new gallery at an event with the cast on 27 April.

Many of the outside scenes from the BBC series are filmed at The Historic Dockyard Chatham in Kent. The new gallery hosts costumes and items from the popular TV show, including Trixie Franklin’s Wedding dress, Violet’s Haberdashery, and Buckle’s Shop.

The newly re-vamped tour encourages visitors to walk in the footsteps of Sister Julienne, Nurse Trixie Franklin, Nancy Corrigan, and Dr Turner. Groups can explore the cobbled streets and buildings of the Dockyard which double as ‘Poplar’, as well as viewing the iconic locations of Grosvenor Hotel and ‘Chummy’s Hill’.

Visitors to the tour are guided through the site by their very own costumed midwife, armed with a photograph book and tales of their ‘sisters’, before being allowed to explore the sets, costumes, and props in the all-new, exclusive gallery, which is twice the size of the former gallery.
