= Coronation Street returns to our allotments =

ITV has returned to Grosvenor Road to use one of our plots to film a new story line for Coronation Street.

Filming has already taken place on and around a plot at the Glebeland Road end of our site and the next transmissions are scheduled for Wednesday 30th November
and Friday 2nd December.

== Planned Filming Schedule ==
The next filming session is planned for all day Wednesday 4th January from 8.00am to 7.00pm - the last part being with lights!
So as not to interrupt continuity of filming, access to the site through the Glebelands Road entrance may be restricted on filming days, but the two entrances on Grosvenor Road will be open as usual.

Further filming and transmission dates will be given here as we are advised of them - please check for updates from time to time
