2026 Great Yorkshire SHow
The Lleyn section at the Great Yorkshire Show saw members travelling from far and wide to compete in this year's classes. There was an impressive number of Lleyn sheep on display and Society would like to extend its thanks to all exhibitors for their commitment and their continued support of the Lleyn classes at the Great Yorkshire, especially braving the very hot weather in the show ring!
The Society would also like to thank the 2026 judge, Mr Paul Barrow who undertook the challenging task of placing the classes.
