What happens on the day
The roaster is gas-fired, so we don’t need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Late-September shoots near Moss End lose the light at about 7:05pm, so a late wrap needs lighting at base.

The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.
