Work has been taking place to construct an eye-catching set at the site – with filming expected to take place soon.

A notice has been put up in the area about temporary road closures.

It states Middleton Lane will be shut from May 28 to May 30.

The road will be closed for a distance of 600 metres between the junction with Black Harry Lane and Highfields Barn.

The Derbyshire County Council notice adds the reason for the temporary closures is to ‘facilitate the movement of heavy freight’.

It remains to be seen if Hollywood star Tom Cruise – who plays Ethan Hunt in the franchise – will be coming to Derbyshire...
