CommentsThis trough and another were relocated to Alexandra Park when Capital Gardens moved from the Highgate Garden Centre, Townsend Yard, Highgate. Thereford, it is likely this trough was originally installed somewhere in the Highgate/Hampstead area. It is possibly the one erected in West End Lane, Hampstead in 1898 [1376].
AcknowledgementsThanks to A.B. for informing me about this trough; and to M of Capital Gardens for informing me about the move from Highgate to Alexandra Park.
