“Originally the show was filmed on location on the corner of Wenlock way and Clowes Street in West Gorton in East Manchester and at the Pie Factory Studios in Salford.”

Coronation Street MediaCityUK per Wikipedia 1960–

Named here by Salford’s own Wikipedia article

Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Salford, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.

Coronation Street 1960–

“Rows of terraces in neighbourhoods such as Seedley and Langworthy – once used for the title sequence of Coronation Street – are being compulsorily purchased, demolished and replaced by "modern sustainable accommodation".” Wikipedia
