The Regent Cast Iron Hopper No.1(Corner) — code H1A — is a square-plan corner hopper designed to collect rainwater from two converging roof slopes. It is a traditional component found on Georgian, Regency, and early Victorian buildings wherever internal gutter valleys meet a downpipe outlet.
The H1A has a strongly tapering body that reduces from a wide square rim to a round downpipe outlet at its base. The projecting cornice rim sits proud of the body and carries small bracket lugs at each corner — the detail that gives the hopper its structural authority and visual weight. There is no applied surface ornament; the form is the architecture. The result is a component that reads as designed rather than functional.
Corner hoppers are required wherever two lengths of gutter running at right angles converge and need to drain through a single downpipe. The H1A suits period buildings of all scales — from small Georgian terrace houses to substantial country houses and civic buildings with hipped or valley roofs. It is equally appropriate for conservation-area new-build where traditional corner details are specified.
The H1A is cast in solid cast iron in the UK and is available in four round pipe connection sizes: 65mm, 75mm, 100mm, and 150mm. Standard finish is primed and painted black; linseed oil paint finishes are available on request and are particularly well suited to listed building and conservation work. Both socketed and spigot-end connection options are available — please confirm when ordering.
Pipe Connections (Round): 65mm / 75mm / 100mm / 150mm

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.
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.

We manufacture a wide variety of brackets for many different cast iron gutter and pipe profiles. More common types are the rise and fall, top fix and side fix rafter and the holderbat or pipe clip.
We can also offer traditional drive brackets, repair brackets and fascia brackets in both steel and cast iron.
It is always advisable to replace like with like because quite often the brackets form and important part of the buildings architecture. Occasionally buildings have special decorative brackets and our UK manufacturing allows us to produce small quantities of bespoke brackets when required.
Our cast iron airbricks are available in a choice of finishes including primer and painted options. If you require a specific finish for a conservation project or to match existing ironwork, please call us on 0333 987 4452 to discuss.
