OXFORD DOWN SALES

The Association has two official sales, held at Worcester market in August and Melton Mowbray market in September.  The entries at both sales are subject to inspection by a veterinary surgeon.  Catalogues are available from the auctioneers or from the Association’s website shortly before each sale.  There is normally a good selection of both rams and ewes available at these sales.
