Its first show was held in 1799 at Wootton's Livery Stables, Smithfield which continued to be its venue until 1862 when it moved to the Royal Agricultural Hall, Islington. Mr Hickson's prize for his three wethers was recorded in The British Farmers Magazine, vol. I (1837,p. 46) under ‘Smithfield Cattle Club Show’ , Class Nine, records that 'The premium of 20 sovereigns in this class, for long-woolled sheep, one year old, without restriction as to feeding, be adjudged to Mr Richard Hickson, of Hougham near Grantham, for his three 32 months old wethers, bred and fed by himself. Travelled in a cart 116 miles to the show.' and 'That a silver medal as the breeder of the above , be adjudged to Mr Hickson.' In 1843 Earl Spencer of Althorp's 4 years and 6 month's old Durham Ox won a first prize of £20 and a silver medal. The British Farmers Magazine (1843, NS vol. VII, p. 536) recorded that it had been fed on swedes, mangel wurzle, cabbages, hay, oil-cake and bean-meal.The term 'feltspar porcelain' in the mark on the base of the jug refers to the lead-free glaze for which John Rose & Co. won a Society of Arts Gold Medal on 30 May 1820, rather than to the body of the ware, which was a soft-paste porcelain.referenceterm-120816adlib-term-120816b8c35cb6-f02f-34c9-9dda-b3120e12c74919th Century, second quarter#referenceterm-97680adlib-term-97680d0493beb-d54a-30ea-970d-e525d2e9403eVictoriareferenceterm-116792adlib-term-116792c03eb4df-92ad-3473-98db-5d58f000859dliteralEnglandEnglandcountryliteralShropshireShropshireregionCoalporthence manufacturer's term 'Feltspar Porcelain'referenceterm-134007adlib-term-1340076e70f149-ef42-3aa3-92a2-6602b4e82e50feldspathic glazereferenceterm-37633adlib-term-3763343c6b916-951a-36c6-a4a7-7342c900a6d7bone chinaHeightcm45.7Heightcm46.3Widthcm38referencemedia-201744adlib-media-201744884a0bd2-1e13-359f-ba8c-c50dbced5765jpegaa/aa36/C_22_2014_1_201409_kly25_dc2.jpg1heightpixels1024widthpixels76816162647083251imagejpegaa/aa36/mid_C_22_2014_1_201409_kly25_dc2.jpg1heightpixels667widthpixels50016162647083251imagejpegaa/aa36/C_22_2014_1_201409_kly25_dc2.jpg1heightpixels1024widthpixels76816162647083251imagejpegaa/aa36/preview_C_22_2014_1_201409_kly25_dc2.jpg1heightpixels333widthpixels25016162647083251image0media
