Maybe the last summer’s day of the year in Leek today seeing plenty of buyers around the rings.

1025 Lambs entered, seeing a solid trade with

well-bred sorts attracting strong bidding. Best big Lambs grossing £148/head.

Slightly less pigs around compared to last week with 117 on offer and trade a little sharper overall.

176 Calves on offer with trade outstanding for the best sorts and lots of smaller Calves looking well sold with four over the £430 mark.

A similar entry of Barren Cows to last week with more entries needed to meet demand.
