MOTÖRHEAD star Lemmy’s ashes are getting a new home — at Stringfellows nightclub.
The Ace of Spades rocker, real name Ian Kilmister, died in 2015 aged 70 and some of his remains were sent to pals and his favourite locations.

Bassist and singer Lemmy was well known at the London strip club after Peter Stringfellow opened it in 1980.
Now a replica of Stoke-born Lemmy’s urn containing some of his ashes will be set up in their final resting place at the Covent Garden venue on December 18.
Motörhead manager Todd Singerman said the club “always held a special place in Lemmy’s heart”.
He went on: “He loved the relaxed environment — and he certainly loved the view.
“I know he’s relieved he can get back to enjoying one of his favourite places.”
The band’s guitarist Phil Campbell will be at the ceremony and the urn will be permanently installed for fans to see.
It is a miniature duplicate of the main one at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Hollywood, and features Lemmy’s famous hat.
There are also copies containing his ashes at the Rainbow Bar & Grill in West Hollywood and several other locations.
Club founder Peter died in 2018, aged 77.
