K.W. CLARKE BUTCHERS

K.W. Clarke is a traditional butchers owned by the Thickitt family. It is well-known locally for its high-quality home-produced range of fresh and smoked meats, delicious sausages and pies. As grazier-farmers of their own heritage cattle herd, the family understands what good beef should be and this is the same for the British farmers, the majority in Suffolk, supplying them with pork, lamb, poultry and game. The family also honours the age-old craft traditions when it comes to their signature range of cured and smoked meats. On site is a well-stocked cheese counter and traditional village shop, which sells general groceries, fruit and veg, bakery products and newspapers.
