Description
Reclaimed Galvanised Cattle Trough with Lip 74″L
This reclaimed galvanised cattle trough is a striking and practical piece with plenty of character. Measuring 188cm long, 36cm wide and 30cm deep, it offers generous capacity for creative outdoor use. A central brace links the two long sides, adding strength and helping maintain its shape over time. The wide outward lip provides extra rigidity and makes it easier to position into a frame or setting.
Galvanising has long been a trusted process in agriculture. Developed in the 19th century, it involves coating steel or iron in molten zinc. This creates a durable barrier that resists rust and corrosion, even in tough weather. As a result, galvanised items like this reclaimed cattle trough have served farmers for decades with minimal maintenance. The process helps equipment last longer, even in damp or muddy fields.
This reclaimed galvanised cattle trough was built for hard work. Though no longer in agricultural use, it remains solid and functional. Minor dents, scratches and surface marks tell the story of its working life. Discolouration and rust on the spigot add to its rugged appearance, making it ideal for rustic garden schemes. Whether used as a planter, pond base or log store, this galvanised trough brings honest character to outdoor spaces.
Versatile and Eco-friendly Choice
The drain hole, a galvanised and threaded spigot used for water flow, now remains sealed but could be reopened if needed. This feature adds to the trough’s versatility in both decorative and practical roles. Importantly, reclaimed pieces like this help reduce waste and preserve resources. By choosing a reclaimed galvanised cattle trough, you avoid the energy cost of new manufacturing.
Using reclaimed galvanised agricultural items brings history and sustainability together. Each piece adds depth and interest that new products cannot replicate. This galvanised cattle trough shows durability, function and style in one. It’s a smart choice for anyone looking to furnish their garden with materials that last and matter. Combining practicality with rustic appeal, this reclaimed trough suits both traditional and modern outdoor settings.
Combine with a stone sink to create a water rich garden display.
