English

Noun

cheesewright (plural cheesewrights)

  1. A cheesemaker.
    • 2000, Edward John T. Collins, ‎Joan Thirsk, The Agrarian History of England and Wales (page 475)
      As we have already suggested, the high costs and comparative scarcity of skilled cheesewrights and butter-makers placed a burden of work and supervision upon the farmer and his wife that they were less than ever willing to countenance.
