Shellfish such as oysters, mussels, cockles, winkles, whelks and crabs were collected for food from the estuaries and sea-shores. |
Other combinations include pasta with winkles, Yorkshire pudding stuffed with Italian cured meat, and sanguinaccio con cipole. |

The gang spent several hours using quad bikes to speed along the seabed at low water as the rest filled hundreds of sacks of the winkles to load into waiting vans. |
At Kircubbin Bay, people were out at low tide with their rakes, collecting cockles and winkles. |
Most Scottish rock pools are full of winkles, their round olive-green or brown shells as easy to pick as daisies on a lawn. |
