History I am the 3rd generation to farm here at Sutton on Trent. My Grandfather came here as a young child in the 1880's and was bought up by a Uncle and Aunt who lived in the village. He married a local girl in 1912 and was tenant of Woodbine Farm (30 acres). The farm grew in size, as well as the family (7 children). By the mid 1950's my father and his brother were in partnership on the farm but unfortunately the partnership broke down and the farm was spilt up. Land has been bought since bringing it back to the size before the partnership broke up. I now farm part time my son runs a Suckler Enterprises with Pedigree Bazadaise. Pedigree British Blue and Commercial Herd. Pedigree Blue Texels
