Dennis Tanner marks the spot on Coronation Street

It's great news that Dennis Tanner's returning to Coronation Street. But as you can see on the above picture, he never really left.  I took this picture on our visit to the Corrie set in May last year.

Brilliant! Which house is that, Eileen's? That was the old Tanner house, right?

Yes it features in the episode where Elsie left in 1984. But the carving was also present in the previous outdoor set too

Was it really there before Elsie's exit? I assumed it was carved especially for that and left there as a tribute.
