Thursday November 9th 2006 was a day to remember for Rothbury Family Butchers when HRH The Prince of Wales and HRH The Duchess of Cornwall made a private visit to the shop.

It’s not every day Royalty pop it to your shop but Prince Charles and Camilla spent 20 minutes on a private visit to Rothbury Family Butchers where the royal couple met Morris, his wife Maria and the staff when they took a look around the shop and chatted about the business.Buckingham Palace very kindly allowed Morris to have a private photographer present who was able to take some stunning photos of the Royal couple which will soon take pride of place in the shop. At the end of the visit Morris and Maria”s daughter Molly presented the couple with some award winning sausages and local Northumbrian Lamb.
A day that will live long in the memory of all involved.
