Proof that the subject of the famous Beatles song really existed is to be auctioned for charity

For years, Paul McCartney maintained that the song was based on an entirely fictional character. Now it transpires that McCartney knew more about the real Eleanor Rigby than he led us to believe.

McCartney donated a hospital accounts log from Liverpool’s City Hospital to the Sunbeam Trust charity, which revealed that an E. Rigby was a scullery maid who worked at the hospital.
