ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSUREAn eaves troughing assembly includes elongated eavestroughing members of resilient material with generally U-shapedsection having a rear portion, base portion and front portion,the front portion of each eaves troughing member having alongitudinally extending recess in a front face at leastadjacent an end of the member. Elongated connectors of re-silient material with generally U-shaped section have a rearconnector portion having an inwardly extending upper tree endporiton forming a recess between the free end portion and anadjacent part of the rear connector to receive an upper endof the rear portion of an eaves troughing member. The frontportion of each connector member has a longitudinally extend-ing projection in a rear face shaped for snapping engagementin the recess of an eaves troughing member. A connectormember can be assembled with adjacent eaves troughing members,when they are longitudinally aligned with each other with endssubstantially abutting, by initially causing the upper ends ofthe rear portions of the eaves troughing members to be receivedwithin the recess of the connector, with the remainder of theconnector being below the eaves troughing members. The con-nector is then moved angularly upwardly relatively to theeaves troughing member to cause longitudinal projection ofthe connector to move into the recesses in the front faces ofthe front portions of the eaves troughing members and snapinto engagement therewith with the rear portion, base portionand front portion of the connector engaging the correspondingportions of the eaves troughing members.
