This location was used for both interior and exterior scenes depicting Iveagh House, the grand house owned by the Guinnesses. Inside, rooms were used to for scenes set in the Grand Staircase, Corridors, Arthur’s Bedroom and Birthing Room. The exterior of the house was also used for Iveagh House, as well as Jude’s Tavern.
Instead, the house was also used for other locations, including the Hope St Bedroom, the Probate Office and the Temple Bar.
According to director Tom Shankland, who spoke to Condé Nast Traveller, it actually worked better than the real thing. “You’re like, ‘That’s Iveagh House!’ in a way that we could never have achieved at [Dublin’s] St. Stephen’s Green,” he said.

Stanley Dock
This dock, situated on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, is lined with historic industrial buildings, making it a perfect setting for period dramas. It appeared in Captain America: The First Avenger, Sherlock Holmes, Peaky Blinders and even Taylor Swift’s gritty music video “I Can See You (Taylor’s Version).”
In The House of Guinness, this location doubled as the Guinness Brewery, so you’ll see it cropping up in plenty of shots.
It is also featured in scenes set in the stables, yard, Pneumonia Alley, Edward’s office and Rafferty’s office.
