Apple Corps’ headquarters at 3 Savile Row, London, closed on 2 May 1975.
The Beatles purchased the building for £500,000 on 22 June 1968, and Apple moved in on 15 July.
Each of The Beatles had an office in the Georgian townhouse. There was a recording studio in the basement, in which much of the Let It Be album was made, and on 30 January 1969 the celebrated rooftop performance was held atop the building.
The Apple HQ also became a place for Beatles fans to congregate outside – the legendary Apple Scruffs, as immortalised by George Harrison in song.
This day marked the end of the road for many of the office staff. Afterwards only a small number of accountants, overseen by Neil Aspinall, remained. Apple eventually sold the building in October 1976.
