Wednesday March 8th
Annual General Meeting and Lecture

Special talk by Peter Symonds on 'Captain de Quincey and the Vern'.

Captain R S de Quincey founded the Vern herd in 1922, which was dispersed after his death in 1961. It was the greatest ever sale of Hereford cattle with revenues of £230,706 (the World record) for 136 animals; so you can see what an amazing part of our History this was. Peter Symonds is the owner of the Llandinabo herd, which has been in his family for the last 70 years.
