Penny Lane should be Penny Lane


Penny Lane should be Penny Lane
The Issue
The Beatles single 'Strawberry Fields Forever' / 'Penny Lane' was released 53 years ago this year. It was/is a huge hit worldwide. Making the two Liverpool (UK) landmarks very popular among visitors/fans every single day/week/month/year. In the last few days it has been reported that Penny Lane is named after the slave trader, James Penny, IT IS NOT. Nor was it ever! Can we please keep Penny Lane just as it is? It's connection with The Beatles is known worldwide. It has no logical connection to James Penny at all.....
