The Cheese Place

On Bank holiday Monday Sue and the kids and me went on the Worth Valley Steam railway, parked at Oxenhope and go a family full line return for only £22 for five of us. I haven't been on the steam train here for years and that's pretty good value. Anyway we got off in Haworth for a saunterand climbed up the steep cobbled steps to the main street to come face to face with The Cheese Place, a shop I'd heard mentioned on t'interweb before but never got round to going to. It's a smart shop on the main street, I went in and met the friendly owner (sorry, forgot to ask your name!). Loads of cheese on offer but went straight for the big question, do you have any from WY? He had one called Calderdale Crumbly, made near Sowrby Bridge by a couple with eleven cows. Hurray! This is the only the third cheese I've found in the region. Cryer and Stott from Wakefield make two of their own, one with a rhubarb layer called Ruby Gold and another coated in licourice liqour and honey.

Try the Cheese shop if you're in Howarth, or order online.
