It is with great sadness that we report the passing of Dick Pearce who made our varnished boards for us.
Dick was a remarkable man who spent the last 50 years making wooden surfboards and other beach products from the Old Tannery in South Molton. He could never do enough for you and was truly one of life's Gentlemen. Our thoughts are with his wife Sue and family.

Pig Board & Pig Stick
Our boards are now being used by the RSPCA and we are suppliers to Abbatoirs, Livestock Auctioneers HM Prisons and local breeders farmers and smallholders.
TESTIMONIAL - Sedgemoor Auction Centre, near Bridgwater in Somerset
"We operate fortnightly sales of all classes of pig. We have found the sourcing of pigboards increasingly difficult and were delighted to find a local supplier in www.pigboards.co.uk. Their boards are really well designed with four gripping points, so that the board can be used in different positions and are easy to handle. The boards are strong without being to heavy, which is important when staff are penning or loading big sows or boars. We use the LINE-X covered boards, which are not only extremely durable but also enables us to cleanse and disinfect the boards between markets easily. We have been more than pleased to recommend www.pigboards.co.uk to our pig Vendors and Buyers."
