A rare breed of sheep native to the Isle of Man, with brown wool and multiple horns. When George Moore was asked to buy twenty Loghtan sheep for Lord Barnard of Durham, the animals were shipped to Whitehaven and refused entry by Customs. The Isle of Man was foreign territory for tariff purposes. Five days later, when the sheep were finally put back ashore at Ramsey, nearly half were dead or dying of starvation. Twenty sheep, legally bought, legally shipped, killed by a system that treated the Island as simultaneously too foreign to trade with freely and too close to leave alone.
