Riverford pork
pork roasting guide:
Take your joint out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking to bring to room temperature. Always sit a trimmed leek or onion under your joint of pork; it will caramelise and add both colour and flavour to your gravy - discard after cooking. Oven temperatures differ and so this guide is approximate - (NOTE: always test pork by inserting a skewer into the thickest part of the joint, juices must run clear, not pink).
chined loin* or boneless shoulder joints
Pre heat the oven to 180°C and allow:

35 min / 450g plus 35 min and rest for 10 min
