There were 850 nearly all suckler bred U grade cattle and the buyers come from all over the country for them, though a large percentage would have stayed in Wales. It can’t be compared with markets like Shrewsbury or Drayton. I think you would be disappointed if you took dairy bred cattle to a Welshpool catalogue sale, the buyers aren’t there for those sorts.
Only kidding. My sheep man buys from there, and he only wants sucker bred cattle. Hope the heifers have settled in ok.

tegs averaged 189ppk or £85.93/head.
In the interest of clarity, with the levy, tolls and commission off they averaged £81.25.
