Stichelton is an American who had been a cheesemaker in the Netherlands and the UK. In late 2004 Schneider and Hodgson discussed the possibility of recreating an unpasteurised Stilton-style cheese. They eventually found premises in which to start their dairy, on the Welbeck Abbey Estate near Worksop in Nottinghamshire. Unable to be described as a Stilton, the new cheese was named Stichelton, which its makers say was based on the original name of the village of Stilton (the spelling "Stichelton" appears in the 13th century Lincoln Rolls). The first Stichelton cheese was produced in October 2006, reportedly from a starter culture
Saga of bishops and translated or recomposed romances. They are sometimes romanticised and fantastic. The term "saga" originates from the Norse "saga" (pl. "sögur"), and refers to (1) "what is said, statement" or (2) "story, tale, history". It is cognate with the English word "saw" (as in "old saw"), and the German "Sage". Icelandic sagas are based on oral traditions and much research has focused on what is real and what is fiction within each tale. The accuracy of the sagas is often hotly disputed. Most of the manuscripts in which the sagas are preserved were taken to Denmark and Sweden
