barn just off the main red brick yard, we are establishing a herd of
Hereford cattle who share the Trust with a various other breeds; Highland, Limousin, Jersey

We
also run a commercial flock of 50 sheep, breeds of ewes include Jacob,
Swaledale, Welsh Mountain and Ryeland.’ The flock consists of predominantly
