Market Overview

Established in 1871, Bagshaws operates Bakewell Livestock Market from the centrally located Agricultural Business Centre in the heart of the Peak District. Founded in the wake of the repeal of the 5% tax on livestock auctions, Bagshaws has grown into one of the Midlands’ most respected auctioneers.

Bakewell regularly attracts buyers and vendors from far and wide, particularly during special sale events where entries reach upwards of 1,000 cattle and 10,000 sheep—creating a critical mass that delivers competitive trade and excellent outcomes for farmers.

Market Character

From its 19th-century roots to its current role as a regional livestock hub, Bakewell Market maintains a strong community ethos while offering first-rate auction services and rural engagement. It serves as a vital connection point for livestock trade across Derbyshire and the wider Midlands.
