A Sheep Shearing

Micheal - A Shearer

Mary Ardens House - Shakespeares Birthplace Trust (1999)

A picture of one of the shearers finishing off.

Elizabethan sheares could manage upward of 40 sheep a day. They did not have the public to talk too though - even so our shearers managed around 12 a day.
