'Post-apocalyptic' Coronation Street set captured in eerie video

The abandoned Coronation Street set was captured in this eerie video footage before it was demolished.

The footage, taken by The Urban Collective, shows the streets where some of the nation's most loved soap characters lived before the set moved from Granada Studios to Salford Quays in 2013. Webster's Autocentre, Gail Platt's house and the remains of the famous Rover's Return can be seen reclaimed by nature in the video, which was taken back in 2018.

The set was dismantled and demolished later that year to make way for other developments in the area. Despite being based in a different location today, the backdrop for Corrie remains the same but with some new additions to accommodate the ever-growing street.
