JJ Sandham Ltd was started in 1929 by John and Martha Sandham, when they began making Lancashire cheese at their Barton Dairy. Using milk from local farms, utilising traditional methods and incorporating the finest ingredients, their award winning cheeses were first created.

These time honoured skills were passed on to their son Chris who, despite the onset of mass production elsewhere, proudly upheld the company principals thus preserving the quality and integrity of his product.  Very little changed during his time except for pasteurising the milk, coating the cheese with wax instead of butter and using a vegetarian rennet.

The business is now run by John and Martha’s grandson Chris.

He adheres faithfully to the tacit rules of care, quality and tradition and in tribute to them he has produced cheese exactly as they would have done. The company produces:-

Creamy, Crumbly, Tasty and Smoked Lancashire
Creamy and Crumbly Organic Lancashire
Traditional Lancashire with garlic
Rostock Red - Lancashire with Red Onion
Athersley – Crumbly Lancashire with chopped spring onion
