Looking at relocating and just wondering who’s about there, how they find it etc. Also might need some shepherding to be done.

A great county to be in. Certainly miss it.
Good sheep country on the south, some big arable operators/estates too who may welcome some livestock input

It looks good. Seems to be quite a few opportunities. And a bit more rural in mindset than where I am now I think.

Craven Arms way.
Am now farming in the Flatlands near the horror that is Telford, but grew up in S Shropshire and still retain links and friends there.
Very varied county, from the Shropshire Hills in the West,running down the Welsh Border. The big arable areas that are the N Shropshire plain North of the Wrekin (local Hill!) Certainly there are traditional rural farming areas around, and the lack of super fast links from S Shropshire, are a benefit!!
As other have said, ask away
PS. Very few of us with any Shedders about, which may or may not be pleasing to you...

@CopperBeech happy to answer any questions
@Downton_shepNorth Shropshire here. The civilised end
@easyram1 next door, who will know all the sheep contacts I’d have thought .
I think the shepherd from the Downton estate is on here, but can’t remember his username .
Probably mad busy sheeping...

Farm on the Shrop/Staffs border happy to help with anything. Looked after some sheep this winter on tack from a farm in South Shropshire, some tidy farming that way
