'It's time to let the old place go...it's falling down 'round me...let someone else have the worry of it. I've been working here for forty odd years, since I left school, I don't suppose it will be a working farm again when I go. I hope whoever gets it will have young 'uns here, the old place needs new life' (Peter Melbourne, Moor Cottage Farm). This view shows the auction of cattle, on the day of the sale.
