Fornside Woollen Products

 

On the farm we have mainly Herdwick sheep but also a small number of Wensleydale, Shetland and Gotland sheep. This gives us an interesting range of wool types and colours which we make full use of!

Please contact us for further information - we have a range in stock and take commissions. If you would like to order anything we can arrange quick and easy payment by Paypal.
