Cockerham Salt Marsh Lamb

Our family has farmed at Bank End Farm for over a century. The farm is situated on the Lune Estuary at Cockerham, where our sheep graze the salt marshes. The marshes have never been fertilised or ploughed, and because of the high salt levels, we do not have to use any drugs or antibiotics.

The Taste of Salt Marsh Lamb
The subtle flavour, taste and texture of the meat derive from the diet of the lambs that graze the marshes, which are regularly washed by the sea. The taste of the meat is far from salty but is light and sweet. Salt Marsh Lamb is recognised as a delicacy in Europe, especially in the Normandy Region of France, where it is known as ‘Pre Sal.’ It is now becoming increasingly popular here in England.
