The beaded half round cast iron gutter is the traditional profile for Scotland and the north of England. The distinctive double bead running along both lips of the gutter section is the defining characteristic of the beaded profile — a regional standard seen on Edinburgh tenements, Glasgow Victorian terraces, Aberdeen granite buildings, and institutional architecture across the central belt and beyond. Where a plain half round gutter would look incorrect on a Scottish or northern English property, the beaded profile is the heritage-accurate replacement.
Manufactured in solid cast iron to BS 460:2002, this section is 1829mm in length and available in four sizes to suit the full range of period buildings: 100mm (4″), 115mm (4.5″), 125mm (5″), and 150mm (6″). Supplied in primed or factory black finish as standard. The socket-and-spigot joint allows sections to connect cleanly in a run, secured with union clips and sealed with jointing compound for a watertight installation.
Suitable for all grades of listed building and accepted by Historic Environment Scotland and conservation officers across Scotland and northern England as the correct material for heritage rainwater work. Compatible with the full range of beaded half round fittings: 90 degree angles, 135 degree angles, nozzle outlets, drop ends, stop ends, and union clips, all available from Tuscan Foundry Products.
Cast iron outlasts uPVC by decades. Correctly maintained with paint, a beaded cast iron gutter system will perform for 50 to 100 years and more — a specification choice that protects the building and satisfies the conservation brief.
Part codes: HB4001, HB4501, HB5001, HB6001, XHB4001, XHB4501, XHB5001, XHB6001, G820. For specification support or a project quotation, call 0333 987 4452.

Yes. Polished brass is a historically appropriate finish for period and listed buildings and is generally acceptable to conservation officers. If your project requires specific confirmation, we are happy to advise — call 0333 987 4452.
Yes. Bespoke copy casting is a core service at Tuscan Foundry Products. We can replicate any cast iron gutter, downpipe, hopper head, or fitting from drawings, detailed photographs, or a physical sample or surviving section. Each commission is assessed individually. Lead time is typically 12 to 14 weeks, and quantities as low as a single piece can be considered depending on pattern-making costs.
The Paxton H82 accepts round, square, and rectangular pipe connections. Round: 65mm, 75mm, and 100mm. Square: 75×75mm, 100×100mm, and 125×125mm. Rectangular: 100×75mm, 125×100mm, and 150×100mm. Bespoke adaptations including double pipe connections are also available on request. Please confirm your required connection type when ordering.
Our cast iron hopper heads are available with 65mm, 75mm and 100mm round outlets, 75mm, 100mm and 125mm square outlets, and 100x75mm, 125x100mm and 150x125mm rectangular outlets, to match the downpipe already on site or specified for the project.
Our cast iron hopper heads are available in a standard primed and black-painted finish, ready for on-site topcoats. Heritage colour finishes and factory-applied linseed oil paint are available on request. Linseed oil paint is a vapour-permeable, period-appropriate finish particularly well suited to listed buildings and conservation area properties.
Hopper heads are supplied in red oxide primer ready for on-site painting, or pre-finished in black. A full range of Heritage Colours in traditional linseed oil paint is also available on request — please contact us for the swatch chart.
Our cast iron hopper heads are available with 65mm, 75mm and 100mm round outlets, 75mm, 100mm and 125mm square outlets, and 100x75mm, 125x100mm and 150x125mm rectangular outlets, to match the downpipe already on site or specified for the project.

The School Board Airbrick suits Victorian and Edwardian institutional, civic, and residential buildings where the square-grid airbrick pattern was standard — including school buildings, civic halls, estate housing, terrace houses, and warehouses. It is also appropriate on listed buildings and conservation area properties as a like-for-like replacement for worn square-grid cast iron vents.
Our cast iron airbricks are available in a choice of finishes including primer and painted options. If you require a specific finish for a conservation project or to match existing ironwork, please call us on 0333 987 4452 to discuss.
