George Formby lived at the house, named Beryldene after his wife, for nearly ten years until his death in 1961. I also visit the headstone of Beryl Formby 1901 - 24 December 1960 was the wife and manager of singer/actor George Formby.

Loved George formby. Such a funny man
A family member brought a suit and 2 of Georges ukueles and some signed lyrics now I have them treasures to keep
I went to Blackpool and at the ramp where fans and one had two of his ukueles. I held one and strummed it after a guy taught me a few chords.
My uncle met him in Manchester and bought his record and he signed it for him. But owning his personal property wow.
Very interesting !!!!!!
Nice one, thanks.
*Who cleans these windows ...."i like cleaning windows" 😊😄*
Very interesting. Loved George.
You can always tell which house was George’s, it’s the one with the cleanest windows !
It's the way You tell them. Bob
Great in films loved himxx Tu for your timexx
Brilliant 👍
Thank you very much Alan. What a great name you've got
Thank u fir that one ,I love George x❤
I am a big history buff, and from what I’ve heard, George Formby and Vera Lynn were very vital to the morale of the British Soldiers in the Second World War. I love listening to Formbys music myself
Hello Craig, I visited George's grave if you want to have a look and I will do Vera in the future my friend
Well that was interesting shame nothing for George. I'm to young to remember him but I'm sure I've heard record's when I was younger. Thanks again Alan for sharing another good story love ❤️ Gill from Holmfirth West Yorkshire 💙 💚
Hi Alan so interesting about George Formby's family
This was so enjoyable thank you from New Zealand.
Hi, Terry Nice to know I'm going as far as New Zealand appreciate the comment. Hope to see you again. Alan
Interesting. Thanks.
What happened to the original head stone?
£140,000 was a lot of money in 1961. To prove it, my grandmother and granddad bought a new 3-bedroom semi detached property for just £6,000 in 1963.
Just found your u tube channel well done have you ever visited Frank Randle grave 👍👍👍👍👍
Just seen this and beryl ingham is my great great great auntie her sister is my gran eithel mayo formally eithel ingham
What a lovely house and your right alan I think George would have paid .For a stone for beryl 👍
It was bad timing they both went so close etc but after all those years I sure he would Sharon
The rushed sale at the house was the fault of George's solicitor who was worried about the will being challenged. NOT Patricia.
But does that not mean that the solicitor will be also representing her? I don't say that's true, I just don't know but actually it was whacked in her behalf as she was the beneficiary.
You are correct on this point - the Formby family were up in arms about the will.

I wonder if anyone bought his pants 🤔
Lol!!!!!
Just to say that the house in the photo near the beginning of your video, whilst called Beryldene (as all his houses were) it is not the one you went to see. This is a different one I think in Singleton or possibly another house he lived in in St Annes.
Good video though. Have you been to George’s which he shares with his parents?
Hello Dave, but they asked the plaque on the wall at the front saying that that was George from his house. I have done his grave. It's one of my videos. Thank you for your interest in a nice comment. Alan
@@MotorHomeBeepBeep think we may be at crossed threads 😀 The one at 199 Inner Promenade with the blue plaque was his last house and the one where the auction was held so that was correct. The black and white photo with George & Beryl in the garden is a different house to the one you visited but is one that he owned at an earlier time.
@@davegb99 Ok Dave, I've got it now. All is clear. Thank you for explaining. I bet quite a few fans got a bargain at the auction.
@@MotorHomeBeepBeep I understand from seeing the catalogue that there were many lots sold over three or four days. Most sought after were his instruments and is is known where most of those in the auction are now. I know that one chap had his dad go and buy one and he still has it. Others have changed hands a few times. Other items of both his and Beryl’s are owned by the George Formby Society or it’s members. George Harrison did have one. Not sure where that is now.

I was told he got the house cheap because Joseph locke was short of money.
