Livestock - Sheep

The Livestock Show with one of the largest displays of Cattle and Sheep in the County
"Heckington Show is a highlight in my calendar, such a great atmosphere...... Absolutely brilliant"   
Secretary of Lincoln Red Cattle Society. 
​No agricultural show is complete without a great show of livestock

For 2021 due to restrictions on the field we are holding a Lincoln Longwool show only. This will include the annual Lincoln Longwool Auction, an essential part of the breeders season and vital to keep this Lincolnshire heritage breed continuing.

A message from the Livestock Secretary:
"This year’s Show is reduced in size to make it more Covid manageable and due to a reduction in the available area for 2021. As a result
the space available for cattle and sheep this year is a fraction of the normal one, and we have thought  hard about how this could be used most effectively. Having considered a range of options including representative examples of individual breeds, the conclusion was that the most beneficial use would be to facilitate the Lincoln Longwool sale and thereby support their breeding programme. We are very disappointed that we will not be able to offer classes for so many of our supporters and friends this year. We do hope you appreciate the decision we have had to take, and will feel able to support us once again"                               Charles Pinchbeck

We also hope to have a Lincoln Red Cattle display - details to follow
