A much-loved butcher's and farm shop will soon be returning to its former south Essex home with a new counter.
Gibson's Finest Foods, based in Billericay, relocated from Summerhill Garden Centre to Hunter's Chase, in Hutton, last summer - unveiling the new store with a grand opening in September.
Now, bosses have revealed they are set to return to the centre next to the A127 in Billericay.
Customers and garden centre visitors have celebrated the news on social media, with some sharing how they missed the former site and Hutton was "too for to travel".

Shoppers who visit the Hutton garden centre shop will also not be left disappointed, as this is set to remain open.
Sharing the exciting news, a spokesman said: "As from April 1, Gibson’s will be returning to Summerhill Garden Centre with a smaller shop/counter.
"But don’t worry we will still have our shop in Hunters Chase too with our meat counter, vegetables and condiments.
"Keeping all our loyal customers fed and happy from both sides of the A127! Exciting times.
"See you all soon!"
