Rosamund Street, Weatherfield
Rosamund Street is not a real street. This image was taken on the former set of Coronation Street. The long-running TV programme was filmed here from 1982 until 2013; the image was taken in 2014 while the site was open for tours.
Look closely at the bridge to the left of the image. The houses you can see through the arch are merely a large image attached to a wall, to give the illusion that the street carries on. On the corner just in front of the bridge is the famous Rovers Return Inn, on the corner of Coronation Street itself.
SJ8397 : Mills across the water Building on the right is a modern pastiche. I looked at this early in 2008 and realised it for what it was quite quickly. There is an excellent complex of converted mills in this corner. Just as important as Ancoats.
