Many different grand British residences were used as a composite to create Darlington Hallit's possible some sections may have been used in other films.

I own both films. They're not even the least bit similar, even in layout, let alone moldings, paint color on the walls, and so on.

I don't know but it reminded me a lot of the scene in Sense and Sensibility at the beginning when Edward Ferrars (Hugh Grant) was talking to his sister Fanny and she was complaining about how down the Dashwoods were being when their father had just died and they were being forced to move out of their home.
