Quote:
"Coronation Street was built in 1902, opposite Hardcastle's Mill and the Glad Tidings Mission Hall. No.9 had an identical configuration to the six other residential houses in the row: on the ground floor, a front parlour, hallway, back room and scullery, three bedrooms on the first floor, and an outside toilet and coal hole in the yard".

However that source doesn't explain where the bathroom has come from, although it does indirectly confirm that it exists. ("In 1991, the water went off in Coronation Street while Vera was running a bath"). In all of the old terraced houses I've known, the outside lavvie has been replaced by a bathroom at the expense of losing a bedroom, so that would only leave two bedrooms in use.

(Erm, why am I answering this question? I've not seen Coronation Street since the days when Elsie Tanner was battling it out with Ena Sharples!)

These houses are very similar to the one I grew up in. Front room parlour, living room, scullery and outside lavvy in the back yard complete with newspaper squares and a battery-run little light. Upstairs 3 bedrooms 1 of which was a box room but big enough for my brother who didn't need a dressing table and large wardrobe etc. We had no bathroom so Dad took my brother to the local slip baths and Mum took me to one of my Aunts who did have a bathroom. Didn't have a bathroom until I got married. By the way Bobbi, do you think that teacher is up to something, why did she screw Hope's drawing up?

And why did she add curly hair to the ‘dead’ person the drawing?

[derek-33]

on the subject of houses why has sally and davids house got upvc windows but still have a very flimsy wooden door ?

[Bobbisox1]

Something very sinister with that teacher sherr, more doom n gloom awaits us?

Even, Evelyn asked "where is she gonna sleep?"

[elliemay1]

How could they afford to pay a Special Needs Teacher?

[Bobbisox1]

You have a point Elliemay, where does Fizz work? Has she walked back into the job she left?

[fiction-factory]

They are giving her somewhere to live, elliemay, so maybe it costs them nothing. I'm pretty sure the school would not condone such an arrangement though

Love Maureen Lipman Sharron ( and Mary)
Just wish they’d lighten up, I can feel a pedo story coming on with Gemma’s brother

[elliemay1]

A daft story line IMO!
