The G46 moulded cast iron gutter is a larger and more decorative version of the common ogee profile. Known as the G46 or No.46 moulded pattern, it shares the elegant S-curve cross-section of the ogee but with a deeper section, more pronounced moulded detail, and significantly greater drainage capacity. It is found on Victorian and Edwardian country houses, manor houses, civic and institutional buildings, hotels, large churches, and any substantial period property where the roof area and rainfall load demanded something beyond the standard common ogee.
This section is 1829mm (6 feet) in length, manufactured in solid cast iron to BS 460:2002. Available in two profile sizes: 125mm (5″) and 150mm (6″). Supplied in primed or factory black finish as standard. The socket-and-spigot joint connects sections in a run, with union clips and jointing compound completing the watertight seal.
Accepted by conservation officers and listed building authorities as the appropriate heritage material for period properties where the G46 moulded pattern is the historically correct profile. The G46 is a pattern-specific gutter — angles, outlets, stop ends, brackets, and clips must all be from the G46 range, as fittings from the common ogee range are not compatible.
Where an existing G46 installation has failed in part, the section can be matched precisely and supplied for a repair-and-replace specification, preserving the character of the original system without full replacement.

Yes. Cast iron rainwater goods are widely accepted by conservation officers and historic environment bodies as the appropriate material for listed buildings. Tuscan Foundry's hopper heads are manufactured in solid cast iron to BS 460 specification and are suitable for all listed building grades. A linseed oil paint finish is also available, which is particularly appropriate for conservation projects.
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 Antique Black finish suits Victorian, Edwardian, and inter-war buildings where ventilation ironwork was painted rather than polished — estate houses, terrace housing, civic buildings, and rural properties. It is also correct for listed buildings and conservation area properties requiring like-for-like replacement of original ornamental cast iron vents.
