The Belmont No.97 is a square head of quiet, correct proportions — the pattern to specify when the building needs a properly modelled hopper and nothing more.
A simple moulded cornice caps the casting, projecting just enough to define the top edge and throw a light shadow. Below, the body tapers evenly on all four sides to the outlet, the faces left plain. Cast lugs at the sides take the wall fixings. Every part of the design is doing structural or functional work; none of it is decoration.
Patterns like this are the backbone of a heritage rainwater scheme. On a terrace or a run of estate cottages, where several hoppers appear along one elevation, a decorated head repeated six times becomes restless. The Belmont repeats without drawing attention, and lets the architecture carry the interest.
It suits Georgian and Victorian domestic work, estate and farm buildings, vicarages and lodges, and conservation area housing of all periods.
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.

The Polished Brass finish suits buildings where brass metalwork was standard — formal Victorian terrace housing, civic and institutional buildings, and high-quality estate architecture. It is appropriate on listed buildings and conservation properties where the wider ironmongery specification is in brass and a matching material is required.
Rooflight opener handles can be ordered directly through tuscanfoundry.com. For volume orders or project-specific queries, please call 0333 987 4452 or use the contact form on our website.
The Calnethorpe is designed for formal classical and Georgian elevations where scale and material authenticity matter — large townhouses, country houses, manor houses, and institutional buildings. It is also widely specified for new-build heritage projects where cast iron rainwater goods are required to conservation standard.
Yes. The polished chrome telescopic rooflight hand winder opener is compatible with Lumen Rooflights and most timber-framed skylights. Call 0333 987 4452 to confirm compatibility with a specific rooflight model.
Yes. The Louvre Airbrick is dimensioned to standard brick course openings and is suitable for direct replacement of worn, broken, or missing original cast iron louvre grilles. If you are unsure of the size required, measure the opening in the brickwork rather than the existing damaged grille.
The physical properties of cast iron are sustained throughout its working life, so with proper maintenance we'd expect our gutters and pipes to last over 100 years under normal conditions.
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.
Available in two sizes: 225mm x 82mm (single airbrick course height) and 225mm x 150mm (double course height). Both sizes fit standard brick coursing positions and install flush into the wall face.
The Regent H1 is well suited to Victorian and Edwardian terraces, listed commercial buildings, civic and institutional properties, and ecclesiastical buildings where a traditional funnel-form hopper is architecturally appropriate. Its multi-faceted tapering body reads as period-accurate on Gothic and classical building types alike, and it is a commonly specified choice for conservation and listed building projects across the UK.
Rooflight opener handles are available in polished brass, polished chrome, and satin chrome finishes. The polished brass version is the most popular choice for heritage and period interiors. For the full range, visit tuscanfoundry.com or call 0333 987 4452.
