The Ivy House Trough, Hanley: A Monument to Man, Beast, and Community

The Ivy House Trough, Hanley: A Monument to Man, Beast, and Community
Halfway up Bucknall New Road, as you are heading towards Hanley, an unassuming drinking trough stands as a testament to the area's past. Unveiled in September 1879, this trough not only served the practical needs of travellers and their animals but also adorned the landscape opposite the once bustling Ivy House Inn and in front of the old toll house.
