On our site you can find information relating to the breed, latest news, details of shows and sales, stock for sale and information from Breeders’ Groups around the regions.

Our breed can meet your needs - whether you are looking for an easy-lambing terminal sire to produce fast finishing lambs, or a few docile sheep to keep on top of the grass and provide some delicious lamb.
