The song's title is derived from the name of a street in Liverpool, which was named after a wealthy 18th century slave ship owner. This promotional film was not filmed at Penny Lane -The Beatles were reluctant to travel to Liverpool- and so the street scenes were actually filmed in and around Angel Lane in London's East End. The outdoor scenes were filmed at Knole Park in Sevenoaks. The solo was played by a piccolo trumpet (thought to be the first use of it in pop music).
