Hi everyone I recently had a free sample of Granny Mary's potted beef, left by my milkman. The accompanying leaflet gave the background of this, orginating and now made again by the Sutherland family. I remember, being born on Britannia Road in Darnall, the building on the corner of Catcliffe Road and Senior Road which is now ATI Tyres as being something to do with Sutherlands. My parents and grandparents all lived at one time or another in Ashworth Cottages on Britannia Road and potted beef ( or 'potted dog' as my family called it!) was a family favourite. It tastes as good as I remember it. My grandma and great grandma had a shop on the other corner diagonally opposite the Halfway pub, on the corner of Britannia Road and Catcliffe Road. This was before I was born but they used to make their own ice cream and it is quite likely they would have sold Sutherlands products.
