Isn't it funny how you can really see how tiny the area is in those photos without the set dressings and cobbles.

I remember when I went there, it all seemed so tiny, not just the length, but the height of the houses, I don't know how they made it look so big

Nope, it is being demolished.

The cobbles themselves however, are apparently being used for a new area on the new set.

It has been for the last two years, but now it's being demolished and turned into flats.

To be fair, Victoria Street was only built in the late 90s, the old set being demolished was built in the 80s, before that they had an older smaller set



That was built in the late 60s, before that they filmed inside usually



So it's only really 30 years of history

Hollyoaks is the most boring soap. "Oh here's a new character, she'll be dead by the end of the month so get to know her quickly!"
