Phillips &Preece

Phillips & Preece has traded as a family-run butcher from Hereford's historic Butter Market since 1960, on a stall now recorded as Market Hall, High Town. It is one of the long-standing meat traders inside the covered market building at the centre of the city, cutting and preparing beef, pork, lamb and poultry, alongside sausages, bacon and pies made on the premises. The shop keeps its counter-service format, with staff serving customers directly rather than through pre-packaged self-service, and sources from regional farms and abattoirs supplying Herefordshire's beef and lamb trade, in keeping with the market's long history as a produce hall. It opens six days a week with early starts geared to trade and market-day custom, closing on Sundays. The business has appeared continuously in local directories for over sixty years and remains independently run rather than forming part of a wider retail chain.
