What is a Herdwick?

Herdwicks are a very special breed of sheep.  We intend to give you a full description and pictures here in our own particular style, but for now, read all about them on Wikipedia:

And if you want to see some of the most beautiful and evocative pictures of Herdwicks ever taken, have a look at this website:

In the face of Ian Lawson's beautiful work, any pictures of ours would be a terrible anticlimax!
