Description

An animal drinking trough, formerly part of a war memorial commemorating Captain Thomas Agar-Robartes; unveiled in 1922 and re-sited to its current location in 1998.

DESCRIPTION: a granite animal drinking trough in the form of a classical sarcophagus, set on a chamfered plinth with canted corners. The body of the trough has incised scrollwork and carvings of lion heads in bas relief; the lip has a dentilled cornice. The trough stands on a raised surface of late-C20 granite setts. In front of the trough is a fixed bronze plaque which records that it formed part of the memorial to Captain the Hon. Agar-Robartes and was re-sited here in 1998; it also records the text from the plaque on the memorial bench with which it was formerly associated.
