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 stop end closes the open end of a Notts Ogee gutter run. The asymmetric front face of the Notts OG profile is maintained at the terminal point, completing the run neatly at a gable end or other point of termination on Nottinghamshire and East Midlands period properties.
As with all Notts OG fittings, the stop end is handed — internal and external variants exist to suit different configurations. The asymmetric profile means the stop end cannot be reversed or flipped. Confirm whether an internal or external stop end is required for your installation before ordering.
Manufactured in solid cast iron to BS 460:2002. Single size 115mm (4.5″). Supplied in primed or factory black finish. Specified on listed buildings and heritage restoration projects throughout Nottingham, Derby, Leicester, and the wider East Midlands where the Notts OG is the historically correct profile.
Compatibility: Notts OG cast iron gutter 115mm (4.5″) only. For specification support, call 0333 987 4452.

The Ornamental Airbrick is suited to Victorian villas, bay-fronted terraces, Gothic Revival institutional buildings, church halls, and civic buildings where decorative ironwork is part of the architectural language. It is also appropriate for listed buildings and conservation area properties where the airbrick is on a prominent elevation and the ventilation grille is expected to carry decorative character.
Yes — we strongly recommend painting all products before installation to ensure full coverage on every surface, which reduces long-term maintenance. Standard Premier Rainwater products are supplied in a grey metal primer with rust inhibitors and need two undercoats and one top coat (or one undercoat and two top coats) of a good quality exterior paint.
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 airbricks are supplied in primed finish, ready for on-site painting. This allows them to be finished to match the existing ironwork or masonry colour of the building. Standard black gloss is the most common finish for conservation and heritage projects.
Yes. Cast iron hopper heads are the historically correct choice for listed and period buildings, and a like-for-like cast iron replacement is generally accepted without objection by conservation officers. We manufacture to BS 460 for genuine heritage character and durability.

The Iron Works Patterned Hit & Miss Vents are available in two sizes: 225mm × 82mm (single-course, suitable for standard airbrick positions) and 225mm × 150mm (double-course format). Both sizes are available in all three finishes: Antique Black, Polished Lacquered, and Polished Brass.
The School Board Airbrick is suited to Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing, mid-century school buildings, civic halls, public baths, and converted institutional buildings. Its plain square-grid face matches the utilitarian aesthetic of late-Victorian construction and is also appropriate for new heritage-style builds in conservation areas.
Yes. Cast iron airbricks are frequently specified for listed buildings and conservation area properties precisely because they replicate the material and pattern of the original Victorian and Edwardian ventilation grilles. Local conservation officers and building control typically accept like-for-like cast iron replacements without objection. We can provide product specifications and material datasheets to support applications.
