A Beatles super-fan has snapped up Ringo Starr’s childhood home for £70,000.

The Victorian mid-terrace house in Admiral Grove, Liverpool, was auctioned at the famous Cavern Club.

To secure her bid Jackie Holmes paid £15,000 over the guide price for the house where Ringo lived with his mother Elsie Starkey — and where he learned to play the drums.

Jackie is seeking a suitable tenant for the property, which is the third Beatles house in her portfolio — she also owns childhood homes of the late stars John Lennon and George Harrison.

However, the childhood home of Paul McCartney, in Forthlin Road, Allerton, may be beyond her reach — the National Trust owns it.
