The day after gathering the sheep off Ingleborough Common, Will Dawson sets to work to remove the fleeces. He spends almost 12 hours shearing, carefully removing the wool and setting it to one side, before letting the sheep back onto the common. In this film, Will takes us through the process, and lets on just how tiring a day of shearing can be!

Filmed by William Dawson, edited by Rob Fraser.
