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

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.
A hit and miss vent has a sliding plate on the reverse of the grille that can be moved to open or close the ventilation apertures. This allows airflow to be regulated without removing or replacing the grille. The vent can be fully open, partially open, or fully closed depending on ventilation requirements.
The satin chrome telescopic rooflight hand winder opener is available in multiple sizes. The telescopic mechanism adjusts to accommodate varying rooflight positions and throw requirements. For a full list of available sizes, visit tuscanfoundry.com or call 0333 987 4452.
A corner hopper head collects rainwater from two gutters running at right angles and channels it into a single downpipe. They are typically required at internal roof valleys, on hipped roofs, and wherever two runs of gutter converge at a corner. The Regent H1A is designed specifically for this application and is sized to suit the most common gutter profiles.
Victorian properties most commonly used Ogee (OG) gutter profiles, including the standard Cast Iron Ogee and the G46 Moulded Ogee. Half Round guttering was also widely used, particularly in the later Victorian period. The correct profile depends on what is already present on the building — we recommend inspecting any surviving sections and matching the profile, size, and socket direction exactly. We supply 19 standard gutter profiles and can copy-cast any non-standard profile from a drawing, photograph, or physical sample.
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 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.
