Auctions

With a long standing association with auctions and livestock markets in East Yorkshire and further afield we continue to offer this traditional and competitive approach to selling always intent on maximising value for our clients.

We operate the only remaining livestock market in East Yorkshire from our livestock market at Dunswell between Beverley and Hull selling prime and store stock. With fat and cull sheep and pigs every Monday starting at 10.30am and store cattle, sheep and pigs fortnightly. With 3 experienced auctioneers, mobile office and dedicated office team we can advise you on your sale and will set up, undertake and sell your goods for you after full marketing. If you have a small number of items to sell one of our regular collective sales either monthly at the Cattle Market or one of our 5 sales a year at our sale ground at Winestead will be able to accommodate you. We are also able to sell by online auction if this is more appropriate to your circumstances. Email us for more information j.buckton@frankhillandson.co.uk.

THE CATTLE MARKET
DUNSWELL
FATSTOCK AND FORTNIGHTLY STORE MARKET

to include...

Hull Livestock Market – 29th June 2026 – Fatstock & Fortnightly Store Market

Forward – 172 head of stock including 6 Cattle, 140 Sheep and 26 Pigs.

PIGS
A smaller show of sows this week, with trade still right back due to the oversupply on the continent. Heavy gilts were very heavy this week, with nothing under 175kg and the trade showing that. Bacon pigs straight to what is being achieved elsewhere with gilts to 140p/kg from K J Moore & Sons, Weel.

Cutter Gilts to 140p/kg and £129.27, average 140.0p/kg.
Heavy Gilts to 46p/kg and £82.34, average 33.4p/kg.

Cull Sows to 22p/kg and £60.00, average 19.6p/kg.

SHEEP
Another very good show of lambs, with some tremendous quality on offer today, topping at 415p/kg  for a pen of heavies from J C Aconley & Sons, Brandesburton, selling to Shans (UK) Ltd, Ossett or £197 from E Brown & S Suddaby, Bempton. Hoggs are starting to die a death now, both in numbers and trade, but with July starting this week, it’s nothing we wouldn’t very much expect.

Standards to 390p/kg and £152, average 390p/kg.
Mediums to 413p/kg and £188, average 398.0p/kg.

Just a handful of calves this week from W E Foreman & Son, Brigham but a tremendous trade once again in that little ring, topping at £800 for a Blue Bull and averaging over £675 all in, with nothing over 2 and a half months old.

British Blue Bulls to £800, average £760.
