| | Red Poll |
 | | This breed is universally polled, that is without horns; the size small, few rise when fat to above fifty stones (fourteen pounds). |
 | | The cattle of Norfolk were described in 1782 by Marshall (as quoted in the Red Polled Herd Book, vol 1, American ed., 1891) as: a small, hardy, thriving race; fattening as freely and finishing as highly at three years old as cattle in general do at four or five. |
 | | They are small boned, short legged, round barrelled, well-loined, thin-thighed, clean chapped; the head, in general, fine, and the horns clean, middle sized and bent forward; the favorite colour a blood-red with a white mottled face. |
