Balgray Dispersal - Catalogue 25/10/25

Balgray Galloways — Complete Dispersal Sale - 25th October 2025

Due to the end of their farm tenancy and the decision to retire, the Balgray Galloway herd is offered for sale. Established in 2009, the herd was bred to thrive on moderate hill ground and has consistently produced hardy, stylish, and productive cattle.

In 2022, following a reduction from 100 to 40 cows, the herd retained predominantly young stock — with one exception, all cows are 7 years old or younger. Breeding animals were selected for size, conformation, and milking ability, with cows mainly by Troloss Impeccable, Ben Lomond Blackthorn, and Octavius of Balgray, and heifers and calves by Kirkstead Expert.

The herd has achieved success in both Society sales and the show ring. Highlights include Phoebe of Balgray (Lot 4) — Junior Interbreed Champion at Yorkshire 2021 and Interbreed Champion at Dumfries 2022; Ufemia of Balgray (Lot 50) — Reserve Interbreed Champion at Westmorland 2024. Sale successes include Oryan of Balgray (11,000gns) and Nucamp of Balgray (£8,000 at 15 months).

This is a genuine complete dispersal, offering cattle of all ages with proven performance, quality, and character — a rare opportunity for buyers seeking top-class Galloways.
