McCartney Times

The childhood home of George Harrison has sold for £171,000 at auction.

The Beatles guitarist moved to 25 Upton Green in Speke, Liverpool, in 1949 when he was six years old.

Harrison rehearsed with John Lennon and Paul McCartney at the house, which his family left in 1962 just as the Fab Four were about to hit the big time.

An American fan of the band bought the house when it went under the hammer at Omega Auctions in Newton-le-Willows, Merseyside.

Auctioneer Paul Fairweather said the American was “a Beatles fan but also saw it as a good investment”.

In the same auction an original sign from 1960s hotspot Carnaby Street in London fetched nearly £5,800.
