Leadworth

Leadworth was an English village and home to Amelia Pond and Rory Williams.

Reality
Amy had lived there for most of her life after she moved there from Scotland. Leadworth had no airport and no nuclear power station, not even a little one. Leadworth had a Post Office, a Parish Church, a hospital, a Fire Station, a village green with a duckless duck pond and a public phone box. It is half an hour by car from the nearest city, Gloucester.

In Easter of 1996, a mysterious crack in time opened in Leadworth, linking it to a prison ship and allowing a shape-changing alien, Prisoner Zero, to escape into the small village.

In 2008, the village became victim to a small-scale invasion by the Atraxi looking for Prisoner Zero. The Eleventh Doctor later defeated Prisoner Zero and ordered that the Atraxi leave.(DW: The Eleventh Hour)

Dream
In a dream version of Leadworth created by the Dream Lord, by 2015, Leadworth had expanded into (or included) Upper Leadworth, an area home to many pensioners and 'slightly upmarket' according to Rory Williams (DW: Amy's Choice).

Behind the Scenes

 * Leadworth scenes are actually filmed at Llandaff in Cardiff, about 1/2 mile away from the main BBC Wales building. However, the Upper Leadworth scenes in Amy's Choice were filmed in the South East Wales village of Skenfrith. The name is an anagram of "Late Dr. Who" (or "Dr. Who Tale"), though it's unknown if this was intentional.
