Born in 1898.
She was a professional pianist for many years before joining Corrie in 1960 I believe
But there do not seem to be any pictures on Google that predate "Ena Sharples"

I expected to find an old "Play Bill" or something like that. I did find that she had been in some pretty unlikely films.

Nope 'fraid not but an interesting life

Violet Carson OBE (1 September 1898 – 26 December 1983) was a British actress.

Her mother was an amateur singer and she was born in Ancoats, Manchester. As a child she performed with her sister as a singing act called the Carson Sisters. She then became a cinema pianist providing the musical accompaniment for silent films. She married in Manchester Cathedral, but her husband George died at the age of 28 and she never re-married.

Before her transfer to television Violet Carson was a regular member of Children's Hour on the BBC Home Service and was the star of Nursery Sing Song from Manchester, in which she frequently sang with producer Trevor Hill, many years her junior. Contrary to popular opinion she was never known as Auntie Vi, that epithet belonging only to Violet Fraser back in the 1920s. "I was never anyone's aunt" exclaimed Violet when Trevor produced a BBC radio programme about her in 1981. She was at one time the pianist for the Wilfred Pickles radio show Have A Go from the 1940s and also a serious actress. However, she became best known for her role as the gruff moral voice of Coronation Street, Ena Sharples, a role she played from 1960 to 1980. For much of her 20 years on the programme, Ena's moralising caused her to spar regularly with Elsie Tanner, played by Pat Phoenix. Long after her departure from the programme, Carson continued to be synonymous with the hairnet that Ena chose to wear for almost every occasion. However, she had previously enjoyed a long career in entertainment, particularly noted as a singer and a pianist. As a singer, Carson was in the soprano range and was a regular fixture on the Christian hymnal programme Songs of Praise in the 1960s and 1970s.
