I stumbled upon this web article called a "A history of artists that appeared at Bridgwater's Town Hall - 1960-1966":

Here is the relevant section:

THE ROCKIN BERRIES
The Rockin' Berries were not only the second Brumbeat group to play The Town Hall but they were also the second to have a hit record (The Applejacks "Tell Me When" was the first.) Another band with "wimpish" overtones, their history is a little convoluted but guitarist Brian "Chuck" Botfield appears to be the main constant for a group who have had more than their fair share of personnel changes. Botfield and future Berrie Geoff Turton both attended Turves Green School and upon leaving, Botfield formed a skiffle group called “The Bobcats”, a band that at one point included a young female piano player called Christine Perfect, who for the uninitiated became Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac. Botfield re-named the band "The Rockin' Berries" and after they had split he was invited to play guitar for a combo that included another future Berrie, drummer Terry Bond.

Who knows more about what was apparently a very early band of Christine's?
