Teeswater Fleece and sheep pictures below
Teeswater sheep, indigenous as their name implies to Teesdale in the County of Durham, have for almost two hundred years been bred by farmers in that area of the North. In 1804, Teeswaters were sent to Tasmania from The Duke of Northumberland's Estate. Like all longwool sheep in northern England they were influenced by Bakewell's activities in the 18th century. Until the 1920's the breed was a comparatively rare one and was not found far from its native habitat, but now that the remarkable crossing qualities of the breed have been consistently improved and developed, Teeswater and Teeswater half-bred (Masham) are found in almost all parts of the UK.

Susan's has gotten into theTeeswater breed because of its temperment and the ability to work with the fiber in many areas of the fiber arts. The fiber is used for felting and spinning. It has luster and length. My base flock started with a 87.5 % Teeswater ram purchased from Roy and Myrtle Dow in Colorado. We then are upgrading the breed using the base flock of Romneys. The fleeces are long and lusterous. Keeping the Black points and feet. The % of Teeswaters we have for sale now is 43.75% We have one 75% Ram lamb. The sheep are excellent keepers and a tall long lovely animal.
