96 Moor Lane

96 Moor Lane was the home of Esther Hayes between May 1962 and January 1964. Located atop a hill in Moor Lane, Oakhill, the luxury flat had previously been the residence of one of Esther's supervisors at Hunter and Bowen, who suggested that Esther buy the property when they moved south. Esther did so, feeling that 5 Coronation Street was too big for one person. The apartment was close enough to Coronation Street for Esther to keep in touch with her old friends, and in March 1963 she took in her former neighbour Christine Appleby as a lodger.

Esther lived at the property until 1964, when she accepted a transfer to her firm's office in Glasgow and left Weatherfield.

96 Moor Lane was a modern apartment and had central heating. The property was small in size, with the bedroom situated through the living room behind a curtain. As it was situated on a hill, Esther frequently had to shut the window because of the noise from car engines.
