Woolly Jumpers!

We were honoured to again conduct the official annual auction on behalf of the Lincoln Longwool Sheep Breeders' Association - the country breed of sheep.

The sale was held at the Heckington Show on Sunday 26th July and because of the dismal weather this year, took place inside one of the livestock marquees. Six rams and 25 females were entered into the pedigree sale, with £130 of prize money to be won by those entered into the Show.

The champion ram belonged to KM Robinson and realised 325 guineas (average was 281.25 guineas). Bidding was very strong for the reserve champion female, belonging to M & J Coney and this reached 330 guineas (average was 144.27 guineas).
