'It’s definitely the right time to go'

A Darwen Market butcher is retiring after more than 50 years working on and then running his family stalls.

Tom will still be busy on his farm at Tockholes, supplying Lizzie with his lamb and beef. He said: “It’s definitely the right time to go.“I hadn’t really had thoughts of ever packing up and everyone is shocked, but when I told someone recently, they said: ‘Tom, you’ve done your shift and someone else’s as well.’ With all the 4am starts, it certainly feels like that!
