3 years ago, when Cheryl and Barry Eldridge looked to diversify the farming activities on Stansborough, their New Zealand sheep station, they had no idea the results would eventually be seen on cinema screens around the world. The unique fibre created by their flock of rare grey sheep was used to costume many of the main characters appearing in the blockbuster movies 'The Lord of the Rings' and 'The Hobbit'. It was seen again in two major Disney productions, Narnia's - The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and Prince Caspian; along with The Waterhorse, BBC's Kidnapped, Avatar and many others. This New Zealand couple say that producing the fabric for the 'Fellowship Cloaks' and major costuming in 'The Lord of the Rings' movies was their ultimate challenge and their biggest achievement to date.
