Yeah I'm sure that would be the old cottage that was on the locks at the bottom of scotts field before the first of the "four bridges"

Incidentally has anybody seen a GOOD copy of "Ferry Cross The Mersey" I've bought it twice and considering it was made around the same time as "A Hard Day's Night" it it awful quality ,deteriorated and faded...never been reissued or been on tv because Apple (Beatles Company)refuse to re-release it

I believe that the old cottage was the residence of the MD&HB diver.

Hey Torryman I have a DVD of it bought it from a site in the USA and is good quality, they specialise in movies from that era particularly involving musicians. Jerry lee Lewis and the like. I will post the link to the site sometime tomorrow. By the way I was on/off the Ferry where they board riding the scooters and when he sings Ferry 'Cross The Mersey, still looking for myself - well it was about 45 years ago.
