Haughton, Staffordshire

Haughton is a village in Staffordshire, England, approximately 4 miles outside and to the west of the county town of Stafford.

Red Lion Farm of Haughton is a local distributor of high quality ice-creams, which are widely recognised throughout the county.

The ice-cream is produced fresh on-site by house-owned Jersey Cows, which inhabit the farm along with a number of other animals, including Alpacas.

Every year some of the village's most impressive houses have donation boxes outside them in order to raise money for charity.
