FORWARD: 1,308 Breeding Sheep & Rams including Annual Sale of Lleyn Breeding sheep and Gimmer Lambs, Fortnightly Sale of Breeding Sheep and Third Sale of Swaledale Ewes.
A mixed show for the fortnightly sale would see Mule, Halfbred and Continental shearlings dearer than the previous, whilst ewes saw better quality a decent trade but plainer sorts harder to cash.
