A couple’s retirement after a 60-year family link to a North Shropshire farm has prompted a dispersal sale of their quality farm implements, machinery, vehicles and workshop tools, later this month.
The Manitou MLT 634-120 PS Elite Loadall and Massey Ferguson tractors that will be sold in the dispersal sale.
The couple began as dairy farmers before moving into beef and arable in 2001. More recently, Mr Edwards has been rearing dairy heifers for a neighbour. “Having been a farmer all my working life, I do find it difficult to switch off,” explained Mr Edwards. “We have a beautiful house nearby which needs renovating, so that will keep me busy.”
“The items on offer have been extremely well looked after, washed off after use and stored indoors, so purchasers can therefore bid with total confidence.”
