CommentsI'm not sure if this is an MDFCTA trough. Does anyone know the history and provenance of this trough? An MDFCTA trough was erected in Bury St. Edmunds in 1908 but this is not that trough. Lady Bunbury who donated this trough (privately?) is not the same as Lady Banbury who donated many MDFCTA troughs.
