Pyghtle is an old word, possibly of Anglo-Saxon origin, meaning a small plot of land or small field, which appears on old maps of Broughton Hall Farm.
Pyghtle is a small, log-shaped sheep’s milk cheese made by Emily Tydeman at Broughton Hall Dairy, it has a pale wrinkled rind and a fluffy white paste. Still a cheese under development, early batches have been fresh-tasting, with tobaccoey or herbal notes depending on the batch.
