Plymouth is a city in Devon that lies on the southern coast of England. The city traces its roots back to the Saxon era and is a famous port town, serving as the departure point for many historical voyages, such as Francis Drake's first sailing of the Pacific. The city lies approximately 36 miles south west of Devon's county town, Exeter.

Ties to Coronation Street[]

Charles Beaumont, the cousin of Annie Walker, resided in Plymouth.

Peter Barlow moved to the city as part of his time in the Navy at some point between October 1978 and March 1986. During his time there, he met Jessica Midgeley, who he married in 1990. Peter returned to Weatherfield with Jessica for the wedding of Susan Barlow and Mike Baldwin in May 1986. Peter remained in Plymouth until December 2000, following his divorce from Jessica, when he once again returned to Weatherfield. At Adam Barlow's request, Peter took him, Mike and Shelley Unwin to Plymouth for a few days in May 2003.
