Coronation Street - new Weatherfield Precinct set 2023 [The Manc Drone Guy]

The Precinct has been mentioned by the cobbles' characters for years but finally viewers will get to see what that illusive shopping centre looks like.

Viewers can expect to see the shopping centre from 13th January 2023.

Aside from local shops and units, the two storey construction also features maisonettes, a staircase (from the original Underworld set) and a balcony. There's also a children's park and play area which allows for a new location to film on.

The Precinct won't look like it's just been built either, as the Coronation Street design and construction teams have worked hard to age the set, making it look like it's been there for years and to echo the 1960s history of Precincts in the UK.

One key location from the off is the charity shop, which will provide a new workplace for residents as Roy Cropper (David Neilson) and Evelyn Plumber (Maureen Lipman) take up a volunteering role.

Back in 2013 Coronation Street moved into its new home at Media City. With this move came exciting potential to continue to develop and expand our Weatherfield community onsite. The first expansion came in the form of Victoria Street and Weatherfield Police Station builds back in 2018.
