What a lovely experience we had this morning as we got up close and personal with the highland cows.

We visited Jarrow Hall which is an open air Anglo saxon living village and museum. We experienced a morning in the life of an Anglo Saxon farmer, meeting the lovely highland cows Ruh and Laddie.

The farm homes animals that are rescued and are rare breeds including Dexter bullocks which are Hardy breeds native to Ireland and were used to plough the fields during Anglo Saxon times.

Susan loved feeding and grooming the cows and told them they were in good hands as she's a trained hairdresser so knew how to get their tatts out.

We learned a lot about the farming life and found it so interesting !
