Sheep Auction | Taking lambs to market | Magpie | 1975

Makes me so sad this video, and brings back many memories . Livestock markets a way of life that had existed for hundreds of years , gone, pushed out by money and greed. All those buyers at the auction were dealers buying on behalf of local Slaughterhouses , or they were local butchers . Now because of EU rules and the big supermarkets , its all gone.

That auctioneer reminds me of some of Michael Palin's Monty Python characters.
