ONE of Hereford's most iconic buildings is set to open as an interior showroom next Friday.
Following a £150,000 refurbishment, the old Farmer's Club in Widemarsh Street is due to open as the new home of Simply Stunning – which specialises in furniture, fabrics and flooring.
The building was purchased in December 2013 by the furniture retailer which already occupies a superstore in Wormelow.
Martin Pearson, managing director of the company, said: “It has been an interesting and challenging project given the buildings architectural and historical heritage and we set an ambitious target to be open by Easter - but thanks to extremely hard work by a great team of builders and staff our doors will be open as we planned."
The building has undergone an extensive overhaul to give a city centre presence for the company and an interiors concept for its customers.
The interior showroom will feature gifts, furniture and fabrics as well as a coffee shop.
