Description
Small Square Yorkstone Trough
This reclaimed small square Yorkstone Trough is a distinctive and weathered piece, full of quiet history and rustic character. Stone sinks have been used in Britain for centuries, especially in rural settings. Before mass-produced materials became common, craftsmen carved sinks and troughs by hand from local stone. Yorkstone, a hard sandstone quarried in Yorkshire, became a favoured choice due to its strength, water resistance and ability to withstand harsh weather.
This Square Yorkstone Trough is small, measuring just 18 inches wide, 19 inches deep and 10 inches high. Its compact size makes it an unusual and flexible piece. Hand-carved and slightly irregular, it carries clear signs of past use. Indeed, one inside edge shows heavy wear, likely caused by repeated contact with metal hardware. This detail hints at equestrian use—possibly as a feed or water trough in a stable yard.
Its aged surface features environmental staining, soft pitting, and scattered lichen. These natural marks bring an authentic, weathered texture. The Small Square Yorkstone Trough would work beautifully in a wild garden, surrounded by trailing plants and mossy stone. In addition, its size also suits patios, raised beds or as part of a gentle water feature. Wherever placed, it blends easily with natural surroundings.

Indeed, by choosing small pieces like this square Yorkstone Trough, you reduce demand for new materials and preserve historic craftsmanship.

Using reclaimed stone in your garden promotes sustainability, celebrates history, and offers lasting function. A Yorkstone Trough brings these qualities together, making it a practical and meaningful feature.
