Welcome to East Wingates Farm Lamb
My name is Jimmy Bell and I'm known locally as 'The Lamb Man' because I rear, butch and sell traditional Northumbrian Hill Lamb from my family farm at East Wingates near Longhorsley in Northumberland. You can purchase our hill lamb online and have it delivered by mail, visit our butchery at East Wingates Farm where we can cut lamb to order, or find us at the Northumbrian Farmers' Markets. Wherever you buy lamb from The Lamb Man you receive top quality fresh lamb direct from our farm.
Our fresh lamb tastes superb because we:
- Use only the finest quality Texel-cross lambs.
- Use lambs from a non-intensively farmed upland pasture in Northumberland.
- Avoid using chemicals or pesticides on our farm.
- Give the minimal amount of medicines to our sheep and use homeopathic remedies where possible.
- Hang our lamb for ten days as was the custom for traditional butchers.
East Wingates is an operation which is the standard to which other farms should
strive to attain, and both Mr Bell and his family can be justifiably proud of their
achievement.

Our customers tell us that East Wingates Farm lamb is the best they have ever tasted. Why not try some fresh lamb from The Lamb Man for yourself.
