"Another end to another mammoth week in Dingwall saw a grand trade throughout for all classes of store lambs, despite many looking and feeling the effects of a wet summer in the west. The sale mostly consisted of very small long keep lambs which led to stronger sorts being dearer than the previous sale. Dingwall Mart would like to Thank Mr Neil McCleary for travelling all the way from Longtown and for his invaluable help throughout the day."
