A new independent book and record shop is set to open its doors in Boyle early next year, bringing together books, vinyl, gifts and coffee under one roof.
While the exact location and opening date have yet to be revealed, Nightshade Books & Vinyl has announced plans to open in the town in January.
Renovation works are currently underway ahead of the launch.
Describing itself as a shop built around a love of "good books and great records", the business aims to offer customers an alternative retail experience focused on unique and unusual finds.
In a social media message, the owners said they are excited to become part of the Boyle community and hope the premises will be much more than a traditional retail outlet.
In addition to selling books, records, gifts and coffee, Nightshade Books & Vinyl plans to host late-night openings, workshops, events and community gatherings throughout the year.
Nightshade already has an online shop at www.nightshade.ie and plans to have a presence at Boyle's Saturday market.
