Blackbrook Philosopher
Spring Barrow Lodge Farm is an eight hundred acre mixed farm nestled on the edge of the scenic Charnwood Forest in North West Leicestershire. The farm straddles the Blackbrook stream and reservoir and this explains the names given to all happening on the farm.
The farm is home to Blackbrook Traditional Meat and the Blackbrook pedigree herd of Longhorns and flock of Jacob sheep. The farm is nationally renowned for the production of pedigree Longhorn cattle and more recently is becoming locally celebrated, not just for excellent Longhorn beef, but also as a supplier of quality lamb and pork.
We are very proud of our successes with our cattle in the show ring, notably many first prizes and championships at the Royal Show, the UK’s premier agricultural showcase. The Longhorn renowned for the quality of its meat and legendry docility is a wonderful native breed with a long traditional history and is set for an illustrious future.
