[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 945507, member: 4353"] Loosely interpret it as a nice, showy animal of good quality. The said cow is by no means extreme in size and is pretty much where the breed were before they tried to make them into ponies in the '50s and '60s followed by the quest to make them into racehorses for the next 30 years losing market share at a jolly pace. Typically the North Devon and Lincolnshire reds are slightly shorter than the Hereford and the South Devon quite a bit bigger, but you are right in saying traditionally there wasn't (and shouldn't) be much of a difference in size between the heritage British breeds.
