Description

The buddle trough located approximately 30 metres east of Bosliven Farmhouse is a Grade II listed structure, likely dating from the 18th century. It is made from dressed granite and consists of a large granite boulder that has been hewn into shape. The trough features drain holes and holes for fastening a sieve over it, and it has a roughly rectangular plan. The inner surfaces show signs of wear from use. This trough was probably used at the nearby blowing house known as the Sanctuary, which is marked as Tithe Barn on the map.
