CommentsI'm not sure if this is an MDFCTA trough. There's no record of an MDFCTA trough in Ecclesfield. Does anyone know the history and provenance of this trough? Thomas William Jeffcock J.P., who died in 1900, was a mining engineer of Bank Street in Sheffield, who resided at Shire House, Ecclesfield. This horse-trough was originally near the old cinema at the foot of Chapeltown Road.
