Description
This Large Cast Iron Hopper adds a sense of vintage charm
Older homes with a large roof footprint make use of large cast iron hoppers within their rainwater management systems to maximise efficiency. This antique cast-iron hopper is a classic piece of architectural heritage, offering both functionality and efficient charm. Discover the long lasting elegance of these functional pieces. With the carbon cost of new cast iron hoppers, it makes sense to use reclaimed versions instead.
Decorative Past
Victorian architects, and even Edwardian, ensured cast iron hoppers displayed the date a significant house was built. A great many hoppers include a coat of arms within the cast, showing the historical connection to a particular family.
Durability
Crafted long ago with durable cast-iron, these rainwater hoppers have already lasted many decades and will last many more to come. It’s important to maintain these rainwater hoppers and doing so will ensure they not only do their job, but look good while doing it.
Historic Charm
Cast iron hoppers, sometimes called rainwater heads, will efficiently channel rainwater from your roof guttering to the building’s drainage system. Equally important, they will also add a touch of vintage elegance to your property.
Preserve Heritage
The cast-iron construction ensures longevity and resilience, making them ideal for preserving the historical integrity and original character of your building.

By making use of our reclaimed rainwater hoppers, you’re contributing to carbon reduction from the process of manufacturing new cast iron hoppers.
Architectural Beauty
Discover the fabulous efficient beauty of our cast-iron rainwater hoppers. These are a classic choice for rainwater management that adds character to any historic home or classically designed new building.
Sizing
