Detectorists: BBC4
Discussion
"Filming for Detectorists took place on location in Suffolk and Essex. Creative England’s Production Services team were contacted by the show’s Location Manager and asked to source a suitable production base, locations and crew. Due to the show’s metal detector storyline, finding photogenic fields was a top priority. Within 24 hours of receiving the enquiry, Production Liaison Manager Hayley Armstrong had used her in-depth knowledge of the area to arrange a recce to Suffolk’s Bentwater Parks and the RAF Wethersfield in Essex.
The market town of Framlingham was ultimately chosen as the production’s main base, with several locations in the area used for key scenes throughout the series. Whilst watching Detectorists keep an eye out for the Panorama Gift Shop, White Horse Pub and Castle Inn, as well as numerous fields and neighbouring farms.
Once filming had commenced, our Locations team were able to make useful introductions to Local Authorities and Film Friendly Partners to ensure a smooth shoot. Watch out for recognisable spots such as The King’s Head pub in Orford, The Crown in Great Glemham and Ipswich’s Mecca Bingo."

Thanks. I thought it looked up that way. Not enough mud for around Maldon!
About 15 miles away.
