For more than a century the auction mart was the focus of life in the picturesque market town of Bellingham in Northumberland. Farmers and shepherds came down from the hills to watch their sheep being sold in the marts two ancient sale rings. But times change, with new animal health rules coming into effect the mart was forced to close in 2004.
This beautifully shot DVD from the same stable as The Last Horsemen and The Last Shepherds captures the atmosphere at Bellingham on the day of the final sale.

  • I dont understand, what problems could occur just by having a sheep sale for less than a day in and around one building?

    If its been going on for more than a century and nothing detrimental has happened yet, let then do it!

    I am not from the UK, so could someone explain the governments reasoning behind this?
