Description
English: Gressenhall Farm - sheep pasture Two goats are keeping a Norfolk Horn wether > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1309786 company. Gressenhall farmhouse and barns can be seen in the background. Gressenhall Farm > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1309724 - it is marked as Union Farm on OS maps - forms part of the Museum of Norfolk Life which is housed in the former union workhouse > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1309477 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1309516 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1309546 located across Gressenhall Road (in adjacent grid square to the north). Run as a traditional 1920s farm, rare breed animals can be seen grazing the pastures and Suffolk Punch horses are working the fields. The Suffolk Punch is one of the oldest breeds of working horse recorded in the UK, with a history that can be traced back to the 18th century. The pastures are grazed by Red Poll cattle - a naturally hornless breed originally kept for milk, meat and leather - and by Norfolk Horn sheep which were almost extinct a few decades ago. Their wool once formed the basis of Norfolk’s medieval wealth. The farm also keeps Large Black pigs, goats and chickens. http://www.museums.norfolk.gov.uk/default.asp?Document=200.50.040
