Gisburn Horse and Cattle trough

Looking down  the Nelson Road.

Gisburn is positioned on the A59 that runs past British Aerospace. the first thing you meet on the left are sheds for the cattle market.  The trough has running water, whether it is supplied from a well or standing water. However considering the size of the trough, it cannot really have watered many cattle.

 Queen's Silver Jubilee

 My mission was to photograph and log the War Memorial at Gisburn. I parked up and spotted the watering trough at the Nelson junction 100 yards from the memorial on the A682 to Nelson.  The rock pictured commemorates the Queen's Silver Jubilee. It is placed very close to the memorial. This information will be placed on a different page.
However there is a link to the Gisburn Village website here. Lots of family history and old photo's too
