The Pultney Tapered Cast Iron Hopper Head is a traditional flat-backed hopper head with a clean, utilitarian character — well suited to vernacular and Georgian-influenced architecture. Its chamfered, faceted body tapers cleanly from a wide rectangular opening to a circular downpipe outlet, without surface decoration or ornament. The result is a hopper that reads as architecturally resolved rather than plain: the angled facets catch the light and give the casting visual depth, while the flat back sits flush against a wall or fascia.
Available in three pipe connection sizes — 65mm, 75mm, and 100mm — with dimensions scaling accordingly. The 65mm and 75mm versions measure 210mm wide × 163mm deep × 195mm high; the 100mm version measures 253mm wide × 210mm deep × 210mm high. All sizes include integral fixing holes. The hopper is available in Standard Black or Heritage Colour finishes, and connects to matching cast iron downpipes via spigot and socket.
The Pultney suits a broad range of building types: Georgian and Regency townhouses, Victorian terraces, rural farmhouses, barns, and functional estate buildings where an unfussy traditional hopper is the appropriate solution. It is equally at home on new heritage-style construction and on restoration projects where a period-correct replacement is required.
Cast in solid grey iron in the UK, the Pultney Tapered Hopper Head is appropriate for use on listed buildings and within conservation areas. It is available alongside matching downpipes, offset bends, and fittings to complete a fully coordinated rainwater system.
Round pipe connections: 65mm (RH025, XRH025), 75mm (RH03, XRH03), 100mm (RH04, XRH04)

Yes. Cast iron ornamental vents in period patterns are frequently specified on listed buildings and conservation area properties as like-for-like replacements for original Victorian ironwork. Conservation officers generally accept cast iron in period patterns without objection. We can supply specifications to support planning and listed building consent applications.
A pole winder opener has a fixed-length arm, making it suited to standard rooflight positions with a consistent throw. A telescopic opener has an adjustable shaft, allowing it to accommodate varying rooflight positions and throw requirements. For guidance on which suits your project, call 0333 987 4452.

The Paxton H82 is a large-format hopper with decorative collar mouldings, making it particularly well suited to late Victorian and Edwardian buildings where the rainwater system forms part of the architectural composition. Typical applications include commercial heritage buildings, civic buildings, large detached houses, institutional premises, and warehouse conversions where a more substantial fitting is appropriate.
The Calnethorpe is designed for formal classical and Georgian elevations where scale and material authenticity matter — large townhouses, country houses, manor houses, and institutional buildings. It is also widely specified for new-build heritage projects where cast iron rainwater goods are required to conservation standard.
Tuscan Foundry's cast iron hopper heads are available in Standard Black and Heritage Colour finishes. A linseed oil paint finish is also offered — a sustainable, vapour-permeable option particularly appropriate for listed buildings and conservation projects. Heritage colour swatches are available from the team on request.
We do offer a range of Ogee patterned gutters in both straight and radius profiles. The straight profiles are much more common and as such cost less.
The H460 is well suited to Georgian, Regency, and Victorian buildings where a plain, undecorated rectangular hopper is the appropriate choice — particularly listed properties, conservation area buildings, and institutional or commercial buildings in historic town centres. Its clean, restrained form makes it equally appropriate on modern heritage-style construction where period accuracy is required without ornamental detail.
Yes. Both the satin and polished chrome telescopic rooflight hand winder openers are compatible with Lumen Rooflights and most timber-framed skylights. Call 0333 987 4452 if you need to confirm compatibility with a specific model.
