Jim Morrison
★★★★★4 months agoWell worth a visit the house is seen as it was when John Lennon lived their for me it was an experience I will never forget for he was an Idol of mine as we shared the same birthday date 9th October and being brought up in the Beatles Generation we also visited Paul McCartney house on that tour which is organised by The National Trust thanks to my wife Kath who shares the same Birthday date of George Harrison for organising this wonderful trip
Brian Skelton
★★★★★3 weeks agoChildhood home of John Lennon. Liverpool England. Wonderful piece of history. A must see. John lived here with his aunt and uncle. Wrote many great songs here. Practiced playing with Paul McCartney in the foyer where the frond door is as the cement walls were good for acoustic sound.
