CORONATION Street fans can take a stroll past Roy's Rolls and the Rovers Return - on Google Street View.
The TV street has been added to the web programme as ITV invites viewers to see the famous cobbles from the same point of view as the soap's characters.
The 360-degree images went live on Corrie's official site yesterday.
A spokesman for the soap said: "Thanks to Street View, fans can have a good nose around the set in a way that would have been unimaginable 50 years ago."
The Google car and the camera equipment on its roof spent months filming earlier this year.
Corrie is the first soap to feature on Street View.
