About Matthews Cotswold Flour

FWP Matthews Ltd is one of the leading independent flour millers in the UK for conventional and organic flour.

Matthews Cotswold Flour Description

FWP Matthews Ltd is one of the leading independent flour millers in the UK for conventional and organic flour.

The mill is owned and run by Father & Son team Paul and Bertie Matthews the great, great grandsons of the founder Frederick William Powell Matthews.

Steeped in tradition, FWP Matthews Ltd represents an important part of the local industrial heritage.

Situated on the edge of the beautiful Cotswold hills in the village of Shipton under Wychwood this traditional mill produces a wide range of quality organic and conventional flours. We still use the original building that was completed in 1912. We source as much wheat locally as possible and then carefully blend with other wheats to produce flour of the highest quality. In addition to our range of Cotswold flours we also offer a wide range of premium French flours from Moul Bie. We deliver nationwide in our own liveried lorries in bags from 1kg through to 25 tonne tankers loads. We hold a British Retail Consortium A grade certificate and are certified by the Soil Association, as well as being a member of the National Association of Master Bakers. We have a strong environmental ethos and currently operate our vehicles on B50 as well as recycling as much waste as possible (see environment tab opposite for more details). We have recently invested in a new warehouse and office facilities. These were officially opened by HRH The Princess Royal in February 2009.

We love this idea for children's summer activity packs from a school in Cirencester and we were more than happy to donate some of our Cotswold Pizza flour and pizza recipes to their packs. Apparently they went down a storm. Hope all the children are having fun doing all the activities and making delicious pizza! we'd love to see some photos of the results :-)

This is exactly what you need over the weekend - some fresh organic bread slathered in your favourite topping. Head to The Cyrnel Bakery :-)

A big shout out to Sharn from Marks Cotswold Bakery for her talk on sourdough baking at the mill today ahead of #SourdoughSeptember. Sharn brought in this fabulous selection of sourdough loaves, all freshly baked this morning using a selection of our flours.

We love seeing your #grainsofgoodness photos. Keep sending them in! Getting ready for harvest!
#repost @lifecanbetoff ・・・ An evening walk last night to gain some perspective, to freshen the mind and because #instagram was down 😂⁣... ⁣ I didn't walk far, but I did sit for a while in peace watching the sky turn pink and the sun set. ⁣ ⁣ It really is true that a walk outside can help clear your mind. And my mind definitely needed rebooting. ⁣ ⁣ I live in a beautiful part of our countryside and I want to appreciate it! ⁣ ⁣ #cotswolds #mycountryfiles #cotswoldslife #instagood #photooftheday #photosofbritain #getoutside #uk_scenery #summer #gloriousBritain #sunset #eveningsun #igerscotswolds #igersglos #uk_greatshots #uk #swisbest #instaworthy #eveningwalk #walking #countrylife #countryside #britainshiddengems #photography #landscapephotography #scenery #scenicBritain #farming #fieldsofgold

#FridayFact Did you know… Our mill was built in 1911-12 by a local builder and it hasn’t changed much in appearance since its early days? #cotswoldflourmilling #Cotswoldflour

The harvest around the mill is coming on beautifully! This is a nearby field of barley which is often part of a traditional crop rotation. Traditionally speaking crop rotation runs on a four year cycle; first year, wheat is grown, 2nd year clover (or ryegrass), oats or barley in the third and, in the fourth, turnips or swedes as an example. This keeps the soil in tip top condition. We would love to see your nearby harvest fields!
