Longtown Store & Breeding Cattle Sale Report

C&D Auction Marts Limited held their fortnightly sale of store cattle and suckler calves at Longtown on Tuesday 19th July 2016.

Due to the great weather, less numbers forward but none the less, a busy ringside of customers ensured a marvellous trade throughout. More required on a fortnightly basis. Topping the sale at £1,160 was a smart black Limousin heifer from DHS Woodhouse, Gibstown. Limousin bullocks sold to £1,140 (x2) and £1,120 (x2) from CT & J Wigham & Sons, Hethermill.
