D.H. LEES & SONS

Trusted for 10 years

The shop was opened by mr Harry schofield just after the 2nd world war and continued to thrive when the shop was took over by mr schofields daughter and son in law john and Brenda Fitton, the shop was run alongside mr Fittons flourishing farm and wholesale meat buisness, due to increasing buisness mr and Mrs Fitton employed a manager a high Crompton local man mr jack bamford and assistant mr john Taylor. In 1987 a young improver was employed darrel lees from newhey. Over the next 19 years with the support and backing of the Fitton family mr lees started to introduce more variety to the already established traditional values! The increase in buisness was a great success and eventually led to mr lees taking over the ownership in 2006 but still continuing to source all his British beef,lamb and pork from mr Fittons expanding wholesale meat buisness at cowlinshaw farm royton(j&b Fitton ltd)!. As well as being a retail shop to the public Dh lees & sons supplies many local restaurants and offers discounts for bulk and freezer orders, traditional cuts of meat have been joined by a variety of new ranges from 7day family packs to BBQ packs as well as producing their own large pies and rag puddings! After 25 years at the same shop mr lees is assisted by 2 full time butchers mr Harry roberts and mr Colin barber who have over 50 years experience between them as skilled butchers!!
