Chevington is a mould-ripened cow's milk cheese from England. The milk comes from Jersey cows, and the paste is smooth, moist, and pale yellow. A knobbly rind carries a light white mould over a browner surface. The texture sits softer than a firm English cooking cheese and firmer than a very ripe soft cheese. It is sold in modest wheels, with a creamy interior that yields as it ripens.

Cornish Brie is a soft cow's milk cheese from the United Kingdom. The name points to Cornwall, and the make follows French brie, with a white bloomy rind around a yellow buttery paste. At peak, the center turns soft and sometimes gently runny, while the flavor stays mild, creamy, and a little mushroomy. It is a British cheese in a French shape, not Brie de Meaux and not a blue. Cow's milk from that part of Britain gives the paste its deeper yellow color.
