For any heavy metal/rock fan with the best part of £5m sitting in their bank account and looking to buy a home in the countryside, it is the perfect property. For the 11-bedroom Sheering Hall, which even boasts its own pub, is the former residence of Iron Maiden bassist Steve Harris.

A grade II listed building set in nine acres of land, parts of it date back to the early part of the 15th century. There is a record of a home on the site in the Domesday Book. Among the more unusual features of the house is the Horse and Cart, a pub complete with ale on tap. There is also an old-fashioned red telephone box out the front.

This life-size resin bust of Eddie from the cover art for the 1984 album is hand-painted for detail so realistic you can almost hear the chant of worshippers around you. The bust mounts to a sculpted display base embossed with Iron Maiden and Powerslave logos.

Iron Maiden has canned their Trooper beer in 500ml tins. Singer Bruce Dickinson designed and developed the ale with Martyn Weeks, the chief brewer at Stockport family firm Robinsons. Check out a canning video below:

The process begins with empty cans with no tops arriving from the production plant.

 

 

The cans go through a rinsing process, and then get filled with Trooper. Once the cans are filled and have their tops on, they take a run through the pasturiser to make sure your beer stays lovely. They get their best before date and other random numbers printed on the bottom, and are flipped over ready for grouping into 4s, and then into 24 packs. The cases are then shrink-wrapped, palletised, and ready for shipping. This initial order is bound for the USA.

 

 

Iron Maiden vocalist Bruce Dickinson recently explained the advantages of cans over bottles to the Manchester Evening News; an excerpt follows: “Firstly cans are easier to recycle, require less packaging, get colder quicker and take up less space in your fridge," he said. "Secondly, cans don't break or smash, meaning they can be taken to venues, sporting events, campgrounds, beaches, and music festivals, where glass is not typically allowed. Thirdly, aluminium cans are excellent protection against light and oxygen - beer’s biggest enemies, so your drink tastes fresher longer."
