The Illingworth family have future-proofed their farm, at Howgillside, near Lockerbie, with a free-range egg venture. Following their 20-year long-term Farm Business Tenancy (FBT), in 2014 the Illingworth family were given the opportunity to purchase the 380-acre Howgillside farm. The family are renowned breeders with well-established pedigree cattle and pedigree and commercial sheep enterprises. To finance their mixed farm, the family sold their internationally recognised pedigree Limousin herd and sought the support of their bank manager. Stephen, Helen and their son Thomas run the farm together, and to ensure that it remains fit for future generations they are capitalising on the farm’s renewables opportunities, grasping new technology and working towards the Net Zero Agenda.

Graham Garmston
But the council says it is looking at the possibility of a grace period for the farmer and is offering him support to find a new home.
Mr Garmston, 57, from Myddle, lives in the smallholding that firstly his father, then himself rented from the council, all his life.
In March his 15 year tenancy comes to an end and he has been told he will have to leave the property.

Thomas Armstrong, Director of H&H Land & Estates, shares his overview of the farm and land market through a turbulent 2020. FOR H&H Land & Estates, 2020 it has been a big year, with a number of firsts, including the first ever “socially distanced” on-farm public auction in July of Dove House Farm. This was a resounding success and still proves to be the best and most efficient approach for selling the right type of agricultural assets. At the turn of the year, the market was strong and has since remained so. In the first half of the year we brought to market a 230-acre former dairy farm to let on a Farm Business Tenancy, this along with the traditional grass letting season delivered healthy results and numerous tenders. Spring saw a large amount of land coming forward, and the strength of offers for next year’s grazing season gives us confidence looking forward.
