We are a family run business based on Warren Lane, Stanway, Colchester. We are best known for our Prime Quality Lamb, We have been producing Lamb for the past 30 years and originally selling our Lamb through farmers markets. We now sell our Lamb direct through our shop with a good range of other locally sourced quality meats.

We have 600 breeding ewes, all of which are native breeds, mainly Welsh Crosses. These are all put to the Charollais Ram, to produce prime fat lambs. Our ewes and lambs are grazed extensively on local parkland and water meadows, being stocked at a very low rate of 3 ewes to the acre. The ewes return to the Farm in January for housing before they lamb in March.

Layer Marney Lamb has always been an excellent butchers but since moving to its new premises at Fiveways Packhouse it has got even better. It now has space to showcase the range of meats and prepared dishes it offers along with local produce. The range of home made sausages are delicious. Apart from the wine, they can provide all you need for a first class meal!

Nice meat, although occasionally a bit short on stock if you pick the wrong time to go!
We have been several times, and often find something nice to put on the BBQ!
