Our Heritage
This area has long been recognized for producing exceptional bottled water. Our local village hall, originally built in the early 1900s, was once a bottled water factory. The water, bottled in glass, was sent primarily to London under the name ‘Hatterrall’, where it was praised for its remarkable quality and mineral content. In honoring this rich heritage and following in the footsteps of our Edwardian predecessors, we have named our brand after the mountain where the spring surfaces—Hatterrall Ridge. Every drop of our water carries the essence of this heritage, offering a refreshing taste that reflects the dedication and respect for nature that has guided our journey.
