Tremendous turnout of quality ewe lambs at Armoy (Lanark) sale
Armoy proved to be the top venue for showing Lanark bred ewe lambs with a tremendous turnout of quality ewe lambs for all parts of the province meeting an outstanding trade.
Highlight of the show was the annual draft of 300 ewe lambs from Mr Camillus Conway, Omagh which cleared in record time selling to a top price of £465.
Other vendors left Armoy Mart with prices not expected and the place was buzzing right until the last pen was sold.
