Beginning in 1999 Andrew and Helen changed their lives by moving the family North to the Scottish border. To start Hallsford Farm, although a farm it needed alot of work it still has the original buildings of the area known as the \u2018Border Reiver Country\u2019, where 400 years ago rustlers and outlaws terrorised the Anglo Scottish frontier. The family grew as well as the animals on the farm. Now Matthew has started his own herd of Whitebred Shorthorns, following in his fathers footsteps, but, in his own way.<\/p>\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t
