Do you know if there is a catalogue? I have looked on the markets website but there seems to be a problem with listing any auctions.

Hi Natasha, probably not. Give Mary Guppy a ring on the above telephone number for more info, i'm sure she would be pleased to hear from any interested parties.

Hi
We went to the sale just to look but considering the cows were not incalf and had calved last June and were sold without their calves I thought they sold well. Most went for between £245 - £290. Lisa Bell bought the 4 best and I think a dealer may have bought most of the others.The calves sold well a steer made over £300 and a nice red heifer made £200.
The cows were all in good condition most were non short, they would have been good suckler cows.

Ps they were not on halters
