Cast iron gutters’ origins
Cast iron gutters have existed since the 18th Century and soon overtook lead as the most widely used gutter material in 19th century. They are very strong and non-porous and can be attached directly to fascia boards. Their authentic appearance means they’re still in use in many heritage applications.
