WHEN John Lennon became a member of The Beatles, no-one could have known how apt the name of the group would become.
The results of the first-ever wildlife survey of his childhood home in Liverpool have revealed a garden teeming with nature – including four species of beetle.
National Trust ecologist Peter Brash carried out the survey to discover what lurks in the back garden of the home in Menlove Avenue, Woolton, where Lennon lived with his Aunt Mimi for 18 years.
The full results of the study, carried out last summer, will be shown on The One Show on BBC1 tonight, along with Mr Brash gathering data at Lennon’s former home, Mendips.
Mr Brash, who hails from Speke, placed humane devices such as moth traps and pitfalls to catch insects.
