Crowds of Harry Styles mega-fans have descended on a Cheshire village to visit the superstar's home as he prepares to perform two shows in Manchester.
It has become such a popular fan site that now FOUR of the columns are covered in fan names and love messages to the pop idol. A couple of miles out of the village centre you'll also find the popular Bidlea Dairy ice cream farm, where you can get lovely views out to one of Cheshire's most famous landmarks of Jodrell Bank. The pretty village centre has lots of independent cafes, restaurants and historic pubs including the Red Lion right next to the church. Sadly, Harry's own name appears to have been washed away now, but in its place is a jaw-dropping array of signatures and messages of love to the star all over the bricks. Harry grew up in a terraced cottage on the main London Road through the village. The messages are filled with love and positivity - much like Harry's own ethos that is so adored by fans the world over.

Nowadays Harry is a global solo superstar, and his family have long-since moved from the London Road cottage where he once lived. Thanks to his appearance on that prime-time show, fans got their first glimpse into his life in the tiny village.
