NSA - Winter Fair, Melton Mowbray

Friday 27th January 2012 

The Society stand was present at this new N.S.A. event to be held every two years at Melton Mowbray Livestock Market.

This is a sheep area heavily populated with the Mule and Suffolk cross. It was a great place to talk to potential new breeders. For the main of the day I saw a strong interest in the breed and in particular the new sale the Society is holding at Bakewell this year.

Graham Matravers flock 519 supplied a pen of 6 pure bred wether lambs from the finishing field. Thank you to Graham they were a great advert for the breed proving that you can get size and weight from the pure bred Lleyn.
