Feilding sale yards, 1902, are the largest saleyards in New Zealand with 330 sheep pens, located in the heart of Feilding town centre. Feilding held the record at 40,000 sheep yarded in one day from 1902 until 1937.

John McCaw appears in this 1974 Spectrum radio documentary about the Feilding saleyards, held by Nga Taonga - https://www.ngataonga.org.nz/collections/catalogue/catalogue-item?record_id=218046
