Established in the early 1900's, the Butchers Shop was purchased by the first of the Bennett's generation Richard (known as "Dick") Bennett in 1959. Dick was from a family of butchers who used to farm and rear their own produce in Wymondam, near Melton Mowbray, just over the Lincolnshire boarder.
Dick's mother, used to hand-bake the Pork Pie's using a secret recipe passed down from her mother, Dick's Grandmother, a tradition that is continued to this day by the fourth generation of Bennett's.In addition to the Pork Pie, over the years Bennett's speciality has been the world famous Lincolnshire Sausage.
