Stoney Cross is a truckle of mould ripened cheese, very similar to a French Tomme De Savoie. It is creamy in texture with sweet flavours and a distinctly earthy finish.
The cheese is named for an old World War II airfield 2 miles to the South of the Lyburn farm.

PARTNER BIO & TRACEABILITY:
Lyburn Farm makes a variety of different hand made cheeses, all of which are made from our own cows milk.
Mike Smales of Lyburn Farm has been a tenant farmer since 1952. His farm is situated in Hampshire on the edge of the New Forest. He originally began making cheese in 1999 as a way to add value to his cows’ milk but now makes 1.5 tons a week! Old Winchester is his flagship cheese and it is a real winner with our customers. His younger Winchester, Stoney Cross and Smoked Winchester also feature in our counter.
