There are only 3 in the whole of Britain! Luckily they are all in the SW....The one I always recommend is Fenland Sheepskin at Bridgwater (Somerset) They provide a personal service for smallholders. Google the website and give them a phone WELL in advance of booking lambs into the abattoir. Ask for June Tinnion and she will tell you what you need to do to get your raw skins prepared. As you have Jacobs you will have a valuable product. Costs are around £20 plus vat and also you will probably get charged a fiver for getting your skins back by the abattoir. Once done a jacob skin with good markings is worth about £70
But Scotland is another country!!! Italy is nearer to me than the Shetlands!!
