Just catching up on this. Our village, though admittedly not the smallest, has two traditional butchers; one, father and son outfit ( now sadly only son) was here when we arrived, back when Pontius was a pilot, the other is an incomer of around 20 years standing; both make their own sausages. (In fact the original used to sell them over the web when it was the two of them working)
Both shops are very well patronised, and there is little doubt that the produce is a cut above supermarket stuff (pun intended).
Gives you a sense of community when you're on first name terms with your butcher.
