The beaded half round cast iron gutter sample allows you to verify the profile, finish, socket dimensions, and material quality before committing to a full specification. The beaded half round is the traditional guttering profile across Scotland and northern England — the double bead along both lips of the gutter section is a defining feature of period architecture from Edinburgh and Glasgow to Newcastle and Leeds, and matching it exactly matters on a conservation or listed building project.
Order a sample to confirm that the Tuscan Foundry beaded profile is compatible with your existing installation, to compare against a surviving section before ordering a replacement run, or to present to a client or conservation officer as part of a specification approval process.
Supplied as a short length in factory black finish. For a full quotation or specification support, call 0333 987 4452.

Yes. Churches and ecclesiastical buildings are one of our most common project types. We regularly supply large sand cast gutters, rectangular and square downpipes, and bespoke hopper heads for church restorations. Many churches have non-standard profiles that require copy casting. We work directly with architects, church fabric advisors, and quinquennial inspection surveyors. Historic England and many Diocesan Advisory Committees specify cast iron as the appropriate material for listed ecclesiastical buildings.
