ABOUT OUR FARM
Welcome to West Lavington Farms. Our family have farmed here on Salisbury Plain for five generations. The farm is organic and our livestock is grass fed and extensively reared.
We have pedigree rare and native breeds of sheep and cattle and occasionally have stock for sale.
OUR BREEDS
Manx Loaghtan sheep originate from the Isle of Man. They are a primitive breed and can grow up to six horns. We have a small flock of these which graze in the paddocks of West Lavington.
Our true commercial breed of sheep from the Lleyn peninsular. We have 30 ewes which we breed for our lamb supplies.
This is a very old breed of cattle which has been kept for more than 2000 years. A late maturing animal which produces well marbled beef. We have 30 of these beautiful animals.
Our Herefords are Original Population and produce beautiful beef off grass. Our herd consists of 15 cows which we hope to build up to 30. They graze Salisbury Plain army training ground.
SHEEP
We are new to Ryeland sheep and only have a handful at the moment.
They are well known for producing excellent quality lamb and great tasting meat.
Castlemilk Moorit sheep are one of the bigger breeds of primitive sheep. We have a small group of seven ewes at the moment.
