Peckforton Castle chosen as Coronation Street special venue

Event venue Peckforton Castle has been chosen for as the location for filming a 50th anniversary special of much-loved soap Coronation Street.

The Cheshire-based venue will be the setting for the DVD special ‘A Knight’s Tale’, which sees the return of characters such as Curly Watts and Reg Holdsworth.

The venue recently received a £1.7m upgrade to its facilities.

"It was a lot of fun to see the Coronation Street DVD ‘A Knight’s Tale’ being filmed here. My parents are huge fans of the programme, so to provide the venue for the 50th Anniversary DVD was really special," said Peckforton Castle managing director Chris Naylor.

"From what I saw it is a very entertaining story and fans will love it."
