Our Heritage

Founded by renowned food historian Amelia Ford, Heritage Hearth Kitchens is more than a delivery service—it’s a voyage through Britain’s culinary timeline. Amelia spent a decade combing parish cookbooks, seaside diaries, and mill-town ledgers to uncover recipes that had faded into obscurity. Today, our chefs adapt those finds for the modern palate, pairing classic flavours with contemporary techniques while staying fiercely loyal to the spirit of each dish’s birthplace.

Every order arrives with a short story card detailing the origin of your meal, so you can savour both the taste and the tale. Whether it’s the fiery gossip behind Welsh rarebit or the miner-fuelled roots of Cornish pasties, we deliver edible history straight to your doorstep.
