Mike Leigh - Naked (1993) Filmed near my house!

Just found out after an article in Time Out that Mike Leigh shot the famous scene at the end of 'Naked' about two minutes from my home in Shacklewell Lane, Hackney. The top picture is a screenshot I took of the end of the film and the photo below is the unusual house about 20 minutes ago before I got home and had a cup of tea!
Tomorrow morning I will get up early and cut down the tree using a plastic butter knife I procured from a Little Chef on the A! just north of Stafford during a heavy storm in the mid 1990's so you can see a bit better.

I lived on Amhurst road right by there too and wonderered if this was that film! Thanks for the confirmation.
