Woolton, Residential suburb in Liverpool, England

Woolton occupies an elevated position on sandstone ridges, featuring Victorian buildings, large family homes, and multiple green spaces across its neighborhoods.

The settlement, mentioned in the Domesday Book as Uluentune in 1086, became part of Liverpool in 1913 after centuries as an independent village.

St Peter's Church and its grounds hold particular significance as the location where John Lennon and Paul McCartney first met in July 1957.

The area contains numerous schools, shops, restaurants, churches, and transport connections, with Hunts Cross railway station providing regular services to Liverpool.

Local sandstone quarries supplied the material used in the construction of Liverpool's Anglican Cathedral during the nineteenth century.
