Rumours started to decline when, on 7 November 1969, Life magazine published a contemporary interview with McCartney in which he said, "Perhaps the rumour started because I haven't been much in the press lately. I have done enough press for a lifetime, and I don't have anything to say these days. I am happy to be with my family and I will work when I work. I was switched on for ten years and I never switched off. Now I am switching off whenever I can. I would rather be a little less famous these days." Campbeltown (Scottish Gaelic: "Ceann Loch Chille Chiarain") is a town and former royal burgh in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, located by Campbeltown Loch on the Kintyre peninsula. Originally known as Kinlochkilkerran (Eng: The head of the loch by the kirk of St. Kieran) - this form is still used in Gaelic. It was renamed in the 17th century as 'Campbell's town', Archibald Campbell, Earl of Argyle, having been granted the site in 1667 for the erection of a burgh of barony. Campbeltown became an important centre for shipbuilding and Scotch whisky, and a busy fishing port. Apart from the distilleries, Campbeltown boasts a museum and a heritage centre. The museum has a varied collection of items from Campbeltown's past, and prehistoric items excavated from sites around Kintyre, such as axeheads, jewellery and combs. The 19th century building also houses the library and has plaques or exhibits related to famous Kintyre people: for example, William McTaggart and William Mackinnon. Near the museum is the Wee Picture House, a small but distinctive Art Deco cinema dating from 1913 and believed to be the oldest surviving purpose-built cinema in Scotland. These buildings are on the waterfront, as is a 14th century Celtic cross that also served as a mercat cross. St. Kieran lived in this area before the town existed. A cave named after him can be visited at low tide, as can the cave on nearby Davaar Island where pilgrims and tourists go to see a 19th century crucifixion painting. Campbeltown also hosts the annual Mull Of Kintyre Music Festival, which has seen acts ranging from up-and-coming local bands to well-established groups such as Deacon Blue, The Stranglers and Idlewild perform. A recent addition to the varied cultural landscape of Campbeltown has been the Kintyre Songwriter's Festival, a fairly low key annual gathering aimed at promoting the wealth and variety of original music across the area. The structure of the event is expanding every year and is open to anyone interested in performing. On Friday 16 June 2006, First Minister Jack McConnell flew to Campbeltown to officially open Campbeltown's new 'Aqualibrium' Centre. Aqualibrium replaced the old Campbeltown swimming pool, which closed 7 years ago due to safety reasons, and houses Campbeltown's library (with the old building being the museum only), swimming pool, gym, conference centre and 'Mussel Ebb' Cafe. The Kintyre Camanachd are a local shinty team that belongs to the Camanachd Association.

1. To those of you who think the place looks a dump...fair enough, but nearly every farmhouse in rural Scotland is like this, if not worse. It's always cold and wet, and a lot of effort to get it cleaned up. So don't go blaming it on him at least.
2. I clicked because Martha
3. Looks more like stalkers or early paparazzi to me.
4. Wings members hated the farm which was dirty and primal.
5. Wow, I didn`t know it was filmed.
6. Paul grew up on the Streets. He was a bad ass.
7. to me it's so funny, Paul saw John going with Yoko... and all the hysteria over that relationship, so he immediately latched onto Linda Epstein a rich Jewish Zionist girl and had to one up John. What's really humorous is that Paul always tried to suggest John was a snob buying the big home in Weybridge talking all the stuff about "John living a decadent life... while he/Paul hung out in London with his artsy crowd" or some such nonsense. Paul wanted have things his way, both ways... he was the humble mother nature's son, yet also the hip cutting edge avant-garde super genius of utmost sophistication.
8. i'd read it was dumpy but seeing is believing.  very, er, uh, rustic.  cute dog!!!!!!
9. Sorry but that house is a dump.
10. Nice to see Martha. RIP
11. In that period Paul must have felt he'd just stepped off a speeding rocket. This idyll setting is very beautiful. He couldn't escape entirely though, as we see here.
12. 0:09 it looks like paul is hunchback🤔
13. Tells us all we need to know about fame and celebrity.
14. most people do not know is that was the real Paul, who was hiding from the public since the end of 1966 year was replaced; a day after the shooting, Faul came with his family to occupy the farm and made a deal with the magazine "Life" to make him a note with Linda and their children; if you look closely at the face of the true Paul and Faul (there are pictures where you can see the differences) you will notice that the faces are not the same, and also the jacket used Paul was similar but different color which used Faul; what is not known is where Paul moved to the day after this video.
15. shit hole
16. Really??  Enough is enough. Let him alone!
17. I love Paul, but that place is a shithole
18. So nice to see footage of MARTHA! It's not always about you Paul. I queried on the doggie! Kisses!
19. Is Paul McCartney a naturalized citizen of Scotland or is still a citizen of England?
20. What did he say at 0:27? "Don't try filming it or you might get ... " what?
