A JOHN Lennon plaque is to be erected in Edinburgh where his aunt lived to mark his many summers spent in Scotland’s capital.
The plaque is set to be placed at the foot of Ormidale Terrace in the Murrayfield area, where the Beatles star regularly spent time with his aunt and cousin until the age of 17.
The plaque is set to be unveiled with an event in Roseburn Park featuring Beatles music, with organisers looking into securing a tribute band.Along with details about his association with the city, the plaque will include lyrics from the hit All You Need Is Love. The plaque has been secured thanks to the work of Murrayfield community councillor Pete Gregson, who got the backing of Abinger Gardens Residents Association to have it attached to the organisation’s wall at the foot of Ormidale Terrace.
“The housing association were really up for it. The family used to have a croft up in Durness and they have a John Lennon garden up there so I thought, why shouldn’t we have something?
