« on: March 28, 2016, 11:34:54 PM »
Does anyone in south west Scotland, close to Stranraer, know where I can get a 4 foot old fashioned cattle trough?

You could try contacting our local agricultural suppliers tarffvalley.co.uk. If they don't have them, they may be able to suggest where else you might try.

Mark, have you tried a farmers market sale? They sometimes sell all sorts of farm equipment. Or a reclamation yard.

I wonder if the supplies of troughs have peaked?
