Taking over the Wiveliscombe shop which had been closed, they were very appreciative of the back up they had from Rosemary’s late parents who supplied the shop with beef & lamb.

We were pleased & surprised to be Award Winning Butchers, being anonymously voted as one of the top 100 shops in the World to visit, the publicity from this award led on to our shop being awarded Best Rural retailer.
