At Borderway Mart on Monday 24th May, Harrison & Hetherington held their sale of breeding sheep where a quieter show was seen with trade much sharper throughout.
Topping the day was Messrs Armstrong, Town Head, Walton selling a pen of Texel cross hoggs with tremendous Dutch Texel cross lambs at foot to £140 per head with their whole consignment going on to average £134 per head.
