Laura
Introduced with Shucknall Laura 6th by Haven Jubilee, bred by H. Moore, tracing back eight generations to Britannia bred by W. Tudge
of Adforton. This is the same family as the Models of Sherlowe, the Spotlights of Llandinabo and the Necklaces of Field fame. All
females in the Lawford herd are of the Laura family.
Biddy
A successful family established with a daughter of Tarrington Do-a-Lot, St. Dials Biddy, bred by D. E. H. Cowles and tracing back to the
noted family of G. Childs at Court of Noke, Pembridge.
Lively
Our oldest established family bred from Lively 43rd from G. E. Harris of Rowley and sired by Beresford. They trace back to the famous
Lively family of J. H. Arkwright of Hampton Court.
Lady Pearl
This family has bred well at Westwood and is derived from Coxall Pearl 4th sired by Tarrington Do-a-Lot and bred by W. I. Thomas,
tracing back through Pearly from S. Robinson of Lynhales to the Pearl family of Hampton Court.
The three following families are representatives of the well known Pansy Leen’s.
Pansy
Established with Pansy 2nd by Paunton Sovereign, from E. O. & A. E. Jones of Atok.
Carrie
A hard working family which was bred from Bockleton Crissie 2nd by Marlow Dictator, purchased from W. H. Sinnett.
Row Pansy
The most recent family established with the purchase of Rowington Pansy 19th, by Wenlock Giles , at J. E. Hewitson’s Rowington Herd
Dispersal of 1979.
Sugwas Benjamin
A.I. (by BB Domino 1087, by BB Domino 427)
A legend in his own lifetime! He was the most consistent breeding son of ‘1087’ in the
U.K. Most of our cows carry his breeding. His influence is immense. 16 of his sons
have been used in pedigree herds.
Oxhill Laurence
(by Oxhill Visa, by CH 3223 Visa ET 57X)
Champion Bull Calf of All Ireland 1994 before he was purchased for Westwood.
His pedigree reads like a Who’s Who of Irish Hereford breeding. He has worked well on ‘Ben’s’
daughters, each sire complementing the other. 16 of his sons have been used in pedigree herds.
Ervie King Kong
(by Ervie Flashy, by PDHR L1 Pacesetter 25S)
He was Male Champion at the Royal Highland Show and purchased from the Douglas family at
5 years of age. His dam was an outstanding daughter of ‘1087’. King Kong was grand sire of
2009 Bull of the Year, Westwood Advancer.
Mara Javelin
(by Brook Finalist, by Clipston Commander)
Used at Westwood late in his life with the generous help of the Lury family of Oakleaf Herefords in Somerset. He is from the Rowington
Diadem family that previously bred our great old of the 1970’s, Rowington Upholder. His son Westwood Wayfarer has left productive
daughters in the Herd.
Dieulacresse Ralph
(by Haven Grampian, by BP Andy Commander 4S)
A First Prize winner at the National Hereford Show. His dam, Walcroft Dowager J5,
carried very similar breeding to Mara Javelin. His early calves show great promise.
Used at Westwood was his interbreed winning son Westwood Vintage and now his
son Westwood Factor. Their work is adding to the great daughters left by Ralph.
We will continue to introduce ‘Significant Sires’ to our herd as they become available.
