Belted Galloway cattle The Belted Galloway is a heritage beef breed of cattle originating from Galloway in the west side of southern Scotland, adapted to living on the poor upland pastures and windswept moorlands of the region. The exact origin of the breed is unclear although it is often surmised that the white belt that distinguishes these cattle from the native black Galloway cattle may be as a result of cross breeding with Dutch Lakenvelder belted cattle. It is the belt that gives them their name.
Belted Galloways are primarily raised for their quality marbled beef, although they are sometimes milked and purchased to adorn pastures due to their striking appearance.

Field, Newham This part of Northumberland is largely flattish at around 50m above sea level. Lower ground, often occupied by the East Coast Main Line , is often boggy or the remnants of shallow loughs.  Quite a lot of this ground is grazed by sheep.
