“Next to the site of The Lost Barn, our micro-roastery emerges amongst those ancient trees and pastures of the Cheshire countryside…we are passionate about ethically sourcing top quality beans from far away continents and meticulously roasting them in small batches.” The coffee business is based on Old Hall Farm and (according to a 2019 news article) the wife of the couple running Lost Barn Coffee set up the company “where her family have farmed for 50 years” and who according to her website bio “can usually be found in the fields making the most of rural life”. Does ‘making the most of rural life’ include killing hares? We only ask because Cheshire (Borderland) Monitors found the notorious Cheshire Beagles on Old Hall Farm in December 2024, where “the sound of the Beagles in cry after a Hare gave them away.” The coffee might be ‘ethically sourced’, but there is nothing remotely ‘ethical’ about allowing the illegal hunting of hares on your land of course…
