Three generations of our family have farmed hill sheep on this farm and one of our ambitions was always to improve and develop the flock

Lanark sheep were introduced in the mid nineties and have proven to be extremely vigorous and prolific, producing in excess of 1.5 lambs per ewe annually. The ewes are easy to maintain and are superb mothers. Male lambs are sold from September to Christmas at forty five kgs plus. Lanark ewes on the farm also produce premium mule ewe lambs crossed on selected blue Leicester sires.

The selection of sires is very important on the farm. The principal features we look for in our sheep are character, size, conformation, vigour, coat and muscle.

All progeny are recorded and now with the aid of a computerised programme, giving easier access to our records and the involvement with Sheep Ireland it will be easier to identify the best performing sires and dams and their offspring.

Feel free to contact us, we value your calls.
