I've got 'All the Year Round' lettuce in at the moment and they've
germinated in the warm spells between frosts and are growing (very slowly)
at the moment. I imagine if you got them started in autumn then you could be
harvesting them through the winter.

If you like stirfries and/or spicy salads, I'd recommend oriental
mustards such as mizuna, mibuna, komatsuna, green boy or southern giant
- you can sow now and start eating in 5 or 6 weeks (especially if you
can give them some protection). See www.suffolkherbs.com for a good
selection.
