Coronation Street Sets

The sets of the British ITV soap opera Coronation Street have changed since first broadcast in December 1960. The current set is based at Granada Studios backlot in Manchester city centre.

As of 2013, it consists of early 20th century terraced houses, with a public house, The Rovers Return, at one end, and a corner shop at the other. The other side of the street consists of a factory, two shop units, a garage and three semi-detached houses all appearing to have been constructed in the late 1980s.

Famous quotes containing the words street and/or sets:

    If I should go out of church whenever I hear a false statement I could never stay there five minutes. But why come out? The street is as false as the church, and when I get to my house, or to my manners, or to my speech, I have not got away from the lie.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The moment a man sets his thoughts down on paper, however secretly, he is in a sense writing for publication.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
