Oswestry Livestock Market

Season 2026

Charlotte Smith and Adam Henson visit Oswestry Livestock Market, one of the region's largest weekly cattle and sheep markets. As spring trading peaks, they step into a fast-moving world where fortunes can change in minutes. With livestock numbers falling and markets closing nationwide, Oswestry remains a crucial lifeline, not just for trade, but for farming communities to come together
