Grant-spec slatted sheep shed in Co. Mayo
Earlier this year, Agriland got the chance to see a grant-spec slatted sheep shed along the Windy Gap in Co. Mayo.
The new shed, which is a four-bay double – back to back – with a feeding passageway either side and a space to set up individual pens was built on the farm of Ciaran and Carmel O’Reilly.
The Reillys had made use of TAMS before, by using some of the grant to replace slats in their beef shed.
