As per Atlas of Wonders, Jingle Jangle was filmed in Norwich, the unofficial East Anglia’s capital. It is located in the heart of the city, Elm Hill, which is a historic cobbled lane filled with Tudor period houses. The crew transformed the exteriors of the store windows which was a quiet alley into a busy main street.

The battle of the snowballs was shot during the summer holidays using local extras. This is also where a snowball fight erupted and turned into a musical number. The makers found the ideal street to shoot the key scenes of the musical fantasy movie. Few scenes were also shot in a couple of real, interesting locations in England.

According to the site, in the 1920s, Elm Hill was saved from destruction when the society of Norwich convinced local authorities to buy and preserve the area. During that time before the Industrial Revolution, Norwich was England’s second-largest city and Elm Hill had degenerated into a slum town. As per Norfolk Mag, Truman’s barbers’ three-storey Georgian building was all transformed into Madam Walker’s Boutique for the fantasy drama.

The site also informed that Mel Cook, who managed PR and Marketing said that it was easy to imagine Elm Hill through the ages even without props, actors and staging.
