Operation Wool

We love wool! Since 2018, we’ve bought the Herdwick wool we use to make our Chimney Sheep® directly from Cumbrian farmers. To help support our local farming network, we ensure that we pay a fair price for the wool which is usually more than the market price.

Fantastic product. Perfect for blocking up the chimney when we removed our old fire surround and opened up the old fireplace.

Loving our Chimney Sheep

Sheep’s wool is the most awesome material so it was really a revelation when Chimney Sheep popped up in a search for a draught excluder for our unused chimney that was sending down some pretty cool breezes into our living room. Our house is very old and the chimney is a very irregular shape so we ordered the 18”X18” to make sure all angles were covered. Our sheep arrived quickly, a few days after I placed our order and with my husband on his back, face pointing up the chimney, with me shining the torch, we managed to manipulate the sheep into a position that we hope would prevent any wind whistling down the chimney. We’ve had some breezy days since and the sheep has done its job perfectly - we love it and would not hesitate in recommending this product….wool is wonderful. ❤️🐏❤️🐏❤️🐏❤️

Go sheepish

The chimney sheep is excellent . Have a large awkward shaped chimney and no longer use as an open fire have moved to electric fire. The chimney sheep is quite adaptive and will bend to fit keeping out down draught . A environmentally friendly item nice little tag to remind you it’s up there. Prompt delivery. Thank you🐑

Welcome to our home

Our chimney sheep arrived promptly and was very easy to install. I like that it is a natural product and gives new life to sheep’s fleece.

Great Idea

We needed something to go up the chimney on an unused fireplace in our 1800 cottage and this seemed a lot better than a balloon...measuring the chimney was a little awkward due to the odd shape of it but fitting was straightforward and its really made a difference to the warmth in the room.
