Prime & Cast Sheep

PRIME LAMBS:  On Monday 20th October 2025 Harrison & Hetherington held their weekly sale of prime and cast sheep, with a downward trend for trade throughout last week numbers did steady up slightly, this caused more competition and indeed drove trade to a stronger position with well finished lambs very easily sold, an SQQ of 317p showed the strength of the trade for the lighter lambs which have seen numbers lacking of late, topping the trade at £215 and 500p was a fantastic pen of Dutch lambs from Messrs Storey, Woodhead , Haltwhistle which sold to Bowland Foods Ltd , Preston , plenty trade was done north of £160 once again, a very local and hill based run of ewes this week sold to £230 for Messrs Soulsby, Williamsgill Farm, Penrith.
