I was wondering if anyone knew a good place to buy galvanised window boxes. Need to be about 80cm long x 20cm deep.

I could knock some up out of wood, but thought it may be more cost effective to buy something that would last for many years to come.

    Homebase do some metal troughs, slightly larger than window boxes. We got ours in the sale for £1.50 each. Sainsburys have some nice zinc ones, perhaps a bit steap at £10 each. They did have buy two get on free for a while instore, not sure if that is still on.
