A classic Volvo Estate outside of 34 Montagu Square, home of John Lennon and Yoko Ono back in the 1960's.
This is another from last weekends London Flickr Photowalk photowalk. A big thanks to Colin for once again organising a great route which explored Marylebone. It's not a part of London I'd ever had the opportunity to wander, to do so in the company of other photographers made it all the more enjoyable.

From english-heritage.org.uk, "The musician John Lennon lived in and around London at the height of ‘Beatlemania’. One building particularly rich in associations with this iconic era is 34 Montagu Square in Marylebone, where Lennon lived with Yoko Ono in 1968.....
The basement and ground-floor flat at 34 Montagu Square was the first home that Lennon shared with Ono. Forming part of a grade II-listed terraced house, the apartment has multiple Beatles and pop culture associations: it was bought in 1965 by Ringo Starr, who lived there in October of that year, and was later briefly tenanted by Paul McCartney and Jimi Hendrix in turn before Lennon and Ono moved in.
They lived there for five months from July 1968, during which time Lennon was creatively very active, working on The Beatles’ self-titled album - also known as the White Album – as well as on early collaborations with Ono. It was at 34 Montagu Square that the famous nude photograph of John and Yoko was taken for the Two Virgins album cover – one which EMI refused to distribute."
