The sale of Rough Fell Mule Gimmer lambs saw the trade peak at £142, £140 and £132 from Brian and Jayne Knowles of High Borrow Bridge with a cracking consignment of lambs. The first prized pen from Ian Mallinson of Borrow Bridge House sold to £100. There was a strong ringside of buyers for good faced, tupping lambs with smaller running types harder to place this year. There were plenty of well-marked tupping lambs selling between £85 and £95. Rough Fell Mules sold to an average £78.93 which is 92p less than last year.
A buoyant trade for Continental and Suffolk gimmer lambs saw the market average lift by £9.90 from the previous year’s sale. Topping the trade was Fred and Tracey Carr of Nissan Huts selling Texel lambs to £120 and £100. Suffolk Mule gimmer lambs sold to £74 from A Hodgson & Son of Borwick Lodge.
