Description
The Leicester Longwool is a relatively hardy breed of Sheep and able to cope with cold conditions. But is not best suited to prolonged wet periods. This lovely animal is living on a city farm in Leicester.
Animals have woolless white faces and legs and both sexes are polled.
There is also a black strain of the breed.
The wool is popular with hand spinners and well suited to direct marketing of woollen products.
