An easier trade for milkers which was perhaps a reflection on the quality forward saw the best to £2080 for a heifer from Andy and Jane Brookes of Field, Uttoxeter with another from Andrew Mills of Ratcliffe on Wreake to £1960.
A very pretty Shorthorn heifer from Shirley Kirkham reached £1870.
The special entry of In-calf heifers from the Hall Bros of Somerford Booth met a brisk trade peaking at £1680.
Next week we have the herd dispersal on behalf of Adrian Baskerville of Fradley, Lichfield. Take a look at the catalogue on-line at www.leekauctions.co.uk
