Colne Valley
Bred and reared by local farmers on neighbouring farms, these lambs are mainly Texel’s crossed with Blue Leicester mules. This cross gives the animals good broad loins and meaty legs.
Salt Marsh
Seasonal. Salt Marsh is available from June until around the end of March. The sweetness and succulence of this lamb comes as a result of them grazing and roaming freely on the marshes during the summer months.
