A genuine cast iron rainwater pattern orignally used in and around Nottingham, hence Notts Ogee. The profile is only available in the one size (4.5″) and has a flat base unlike the more traditional ogee (OG) curved pattern.
UK delivery from £30. Fittings are despatched boxed. See delivery rates.
The cast iron Notts OG nozzle outlet connects the Notts Ogee gutter run to the downpipe. The asymmetric front face of the Notts OG profile is maintained at the outlet point, preserving the visual consistency of the installation on Nottinghamshire and East Midlands period properties where this regional profile is the standard.
Because the Notts OG is an asymmetric profile, the nozzle outlet has a specific orientation — it cannot be reversed. Confirm the correct internal or external variant and the position of the downpipe relative to the gutter run before ordering.

Linseed oil paint is the most appropriate finish for cast iron guttering on listed and historic buildings. It is breathable, flexible, and penetrating — qualities that suit the movement characteristics of cast iron through seasonal temperature changes. Tuscan Foundry Products offers a curated range of heritage linseed oil colours. For modern applications, a high-quality exterior oil-based paint system over a metal primer is also acceptable.
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.

Large sand cast gutter profiles are appropriate for grander Georgian architecture, particularly country houses, institutions, and formal terraces. If the original guttering has been lost or damaged, a site survey can establish the most appropriate profile from the building
