Longhorn Beef

Barlings Longhorn herd was established in 1998 by Mrs Gill Thomas (Sarah's Mum.) It originally started with two in calf heifers and now has over 70 longhorns in total.

The Longhorns can be seen grazing the fields of the old Barlings Abbey site that was founded by the premonstratensian order in 1154 by a small group of cannons that travel here from Newsham Abbey near Grimsby.

We Usually have young halter trained breeding stock for sale, some of which have been shown and placed at the many agricultural shows we have competed in over the last four years. Some of our achievements in the show ring have included a reserve breed champion at the Lincolnshire show 2007, and a breed champion at the Lincolnshire show, and Heckington show 2008, as well as many other firsts.

Only stock of the highest standard are offered up for sale as breeding stock, and any animals not making the grade are fattened (on grass) to produce excellent tasting beef which is hung for three weeks before being butchered and vac packed at our local abattoir. Please feel free to contact us to find out when beef will next be available!
