Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: A day at the Aylsham Show - waiting for the judge. This trio of Castlemilk Moorit sheep > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/937055 is waiting for their turn to be judged. The breed was developed during the early years of the twentieth century by the late Sir Jock Buchanan-Jardine, who began a breeding programme on his Castlemilk Estate in Dumfriesshire. Using Manx Loghtan, moorit Shetland and wild Mouflon, he developed a breed to beautify his parkland and provide fine, kemp free moorit coloured wool. On his death in 1970 the flock was dispersed and six ewes and a ram were bought by Joe Henson of the Rare Breeds Survival Trust (the Anglia Support Group of the RBST had their display nearby, as can be seen in the background). All today's Castlemilk Moorits are descended from these few sheep. http://www.castlemilkmoorit.co.uk/
The 62nd Aylsham Show - a traditional one-day agricultural show, held in the grounds of Blickling Park, a National Trust estate - took place on August Bank Holiday Monday. With an average attendance of 15,000 visitors, it is considered to be the largest of its type in East Anglia and organisers were hoping to be able to match the £40,000 surplus income that was donated to local charities last year. |
