Longhorn Cattle


The "Gorse" Longhorn herd was started in 1966 and, as No 33, is now the oldest privately owned herd in the Herd Book. The herd numbers 20 cows, all of which are home bred, which calve in the Spring. Only the very best male calves are reared as bulls, the steers were finished at home but now are sold as stores to a specialist finisher, Richard Vaughan, who has built up a hugely successful marketing operation supplying exclusively Longhorn beef to the top chefs in the country. Heifers not required for herd replacements are sold at the Society sales (see under SALES) or at home privately. Over the years our stock has become much sought after and we currently hold the breed record price for a senior heifer, GORSE LAYLA selling for 3,700 gns at the Society's Worcester Sale in 2006.
We exhibit at the major shows so please come and talk to us.
