Drinking trough. Late C19. Portland stone. Plan: rectangular trough set on 4 stone blocks with plinth, gabled top with pair of trefoil headed niches, mask above, inscribed on reverse '... in Memory of James Hole... 1876 and his wife died 1855". 60thick style. Not connected to water supply and missing drinking cups and outlet, assumed to have been resited.

This probably had chained cups set in niches and separate water supply so that both animals and humans could benefit from Mr Hole's generosity.
