Note the specific date is 1499, so only just 1400s!

Nearly as good are Balsons Butchers in Bridport, UK who have been operating since 1515.

I'm in Bridport at least twice a year and I still haven't paid a visit yet. Will have to rectify that next time and get myself a string of sausages - and possibly a dog to run off with them down the street.
