This years show will be held on Thursday 11th of September 2008 at Lane Farm, Crooklands, Kendal, Cumbria. One of Britains Oldest and Cumbria's Biggest Livestock Show
Looking forward to the 2008 Westmorland Show The Sheepshow New to the County Show this live show of sheep breeds and shearing, which is seen at numerous outdoor events throughout the year from the North of Scotland to Cornwall, is both entertaining and educational. Set on the back of a 40' trailer the sheep are introduced on to the stage. "It's a bit like Miss World for sheep" says New Zealander Richard Savory who owns and operates the show from his farm in Norfolk. The sheep, with names like Nobby the Norfolk Horn and Susie the Southdown, are clapped onto the stage where they stand on their podiums for the 30 minute show, followed by a well commentated shearing demonstration showing how you get wool from the sheep's back to a jumper to wear. "Don't miss The Sheepshow Shuffle" yes, dancing sheep! But don't take our word for it...
