ABOUT

This a creative archiving project made in collaboration with writer Hayley Flynn.

Combining fine art photography and place-writing we have documented the spirit, history and architecture of the Old Granada Studios site in central Manchester.

In it’s prime the studios were used to film and produce many high profile television shows. From Coronation Street and Stars in Their Eyes, to World in Action and Mastermind. The site was also home to The Granada Studio Tours. A city center theme park that allowed the public to visit the sets and find out about film and television production.

This is a commissioned project by developers Allied London who are in the process of redeveloping the site as St John’s.
