The Farm, on Anchor Lane, in Ingoldmells, held its annual Sheep Shearing Sunday with Mike Hewson demonstrating the skill for visitors.
He sheared the sheep of their fleeces, explained the process and how the wool and lanolin (a waxy substance, which protects the wool and skin) can be used afterwards.
