The Border Leicester originated in England from Leicester x Cheviot
crosses and is found in the northern U.S. and Canada in high rainfall, good pasture
areas.   It is used throughout the world as a prominent dual-purpose crossing
breed .  They are medium to large with a white face and bare head and legs.
Border Leicesters are good milkers and mothers.  They yield a long-stapled,
lustrous, coarse wool that is much in demand by handspinners.
