Transformation of beautiful farm shop in one of Liverpool's prettiest villages

The site underwent the changes in a matter of weeks

The picturesque Woolton Village has long attracted visitors from across Liverpool. Over time, it has become something of a hub for independents, boasting everything from quaint shops to family-run restaurants and cafes.

It's also got more than its fair share of watering holes, from the White Horse to The Cobden and more. And earlier this week, the ECHO visited the latest family-run business to open in the area.

Tucked away off Woolton Street, Woolton Farm Shop is housed inside an old cowshed on a former dairy site, which was transformed in a matter of weeks by owners Eve O'Brien and her husband Neil. Inside, the traditional farm shop has a rustic interior, and autumnal decorations and has shelves full of fruit and vegetables, jars of honey and chutneys, Liverpool-themed gifts and more.

ECHO photographer Andrew Teebay recently captured new photos of the site. But other images, courtesy of Woolton Farm Shop, show what the shop looked like at different points in its transformation.

Here, we take a look at the transformation of the beautiful farm shop. You can see more in our gallery below.
