1. George Harrison (Historic England).
George’s years at 12 Arnold Grove saw his interest in music blossom; he later recalled standing on a chair singing along with the songs he heard on the radio or played on his dad’s record player.(Submitted on October 22, 2026, by Ian Lefkowitz of New York, New York.)
George later wrote of the house in his book, 'I Me Mine': "To look at, it is just like ‘Coronation Street’: no garden, door straight on to the street … It was OK that house, very pleasant being little and it was always sunny in summer".
