Strawberry field gate, Beatles heritage site in Woolton, Liverpool, United Kingdom.

Strawberry Field Gate marks the entrance to a former Salvation Army children's home in Woolton with red gates leading to exhibition spaces, gardens, and a café on the property. The site includes interactive rooms where visitors explore the musical heritage, plus outdoor areas for walking and relaxation.

The Salvation Army operated a children's home here starting in 1936, providing shelter until 2005. The site was later transformed into a public space to preserve the musical heritage and make it accessible to the community.

The name comes from a strawberry farm that once occupied this land, and John Lennon attended summer parties here as a child. Today the red gates draw music fans who come to connect with the Beatles story and its roots in everyday Liverpool life.

The site is open Tuesday to Sunday, and advance booking is recommended for exhibition and garden tour tickets. The café provides a pleasant spot to rest, and the garden can be visited without additional charges.

The museum displays a piano that John Lennon used to compose 'Imagine', on long-term loan from George Michael's estate. This instrument connects two major music figures at an unexpected location.
