The Last Sheep Sale - DVD

For more than a century the auction mart was the focus of life in the picturesque market town of Bellingham in Northumberland.

Farmers and shepherds came down from the hills to watch their sheep being sold in the mart’s two ancient sale rings. But times change. New animal health rules came into effect. And in 2004 the mart was forced to close.

This beautifully shot DVD - from the same stable as The Last Horsemen and The Last Shepherds - captures the atmosphere at Bellingham on the day of the final sale.
