History |
Bagot goats were introduced to England at Blithfield Hall in the 1380s. They were probably brought back to England by returning crusadors. They probably trace back to the Rhône valley, possibly therefore a geographically separated group historically related to the Valais Blackneck (Walliser Schwarzhalsziege) |
