Phineas Horton’s Estate, England | MCU Location Scout

Aerial shot of Phineas Horton's estate, in the modern day.

Let this moment memorialize the liquidation of your very fine estate, sir.

Inventor Phineas Horton once lived in a palatial English manor before he sold it for the money to build his life’s work. That work was the synthetic automoton, Jim. There are three versions of the estate shown: 1939, a figment of Vision’s mindscape, and the modern day version, where Horton’s heir lives.

All versions of the estate were filmed at Hatfield House, a popular estate in the Harfield parish of England, and one that has appeared in numerous films and television series. Comic book fans would recognize it from Batman (1989), Spider-Man: Far From Home, and Secret Invasion.

1939

The first version of the estate shown is in 1939, when Violette Horton informs Phneas that she’s leaving for New York with their daughter Victoria.
