The Marksham No.108 is a wide, low casting with the lightest of top mouldings — a pattern for elevations where the hopper needs to be present but not noticed.
The body is broad and shallow, with a slim raised moulding running along the top edge and plain faces beneath. A cast lug takes the side fixing and the outlet drops from the underside. The proportions do the work: width provides the collecting capacity that depth would otherwise supply, and the low profile keeps the casting clear of mouldings above and below.
That combination is genuinely useful. On a terrace with a strong band course, on a building with a shallow eaves overhang, or on any elevation where a deep head would cut across an existing horizontal line, this is often the only pattern that fits without compromise.
It suits Georgian and Victorian terraces, estate housing, institutional buildings and conservation area schemes where restraint is the brief.
Cast in solid iron to BS 460:2002, supplied in primer or black as standard, with heritage colours and traditional linseed oil finishes available on request.
Pipe connections: 65mm, 75mm and 100mm round; 75×75mm, 100×100mm and 125×125mm square; 100×75mm, 125×100mm and 150×125mm rectangular.
Suitable for listed buildings and conservation areas. Call 0333 987 4452 to discuss fit against a specific elevation.
