The west coast butchers was Richard Woodall in Waberthwaite. He was a proper character. Waberthwaite sausage was the definitive Cumberland for many people. He was known by everyone as “Baa” Woodall. Lovely man. He also made the most amazing dry cured Cumberland air dried hams & used to send them to Glamis for the late Queen Mother. He died a long time ago & his son took over the business for some years until illness forced him to sell it.
The current holders of the name are in Greater Manchester somewhere & the ham is nowhere near as good.
