OVERVIEW
At Hargreaves Foundry, we take immense pride in preserving heritage and enhancing architectural aesthetics with our high-quality cast iron products. One of our projects stands out as a remarkable example of this commitment—a historically significant restoration right here in our local area.
For this prestigious project, Hargreaves’ was entrusted to supply and manufacture bespoke cast iron components, designed to align perfectly with the site’s traditional aesthetic, while meeting modern functionality and durability standards.
We supplied our signature Cast Iron H16 6x4 Moulded Ogee gutters and Rectangular 4x3 downpipes, finished in a bespoke light ivory coating.
Additionally, we manufactured over 300 powder-coated rise & fall brackets with bespoke understays. These fittings were manufactured to precise measurements, delivering a robust and visually cohesive solution that highlighted our ability to tailor products to unique architectural requirements.
Another notable aspect of the project was the creation of 12 stunning, bespoke cast iron planters, which now grace the grounds and add an elegant touch to the surrounding landscape. These handcrafted pieces are a testament to our skilled craftsmanship and attention to detail.
This restoration project was particularly special to us, not only due to its historical significance but also because of its proximity to our foundry. Contributing to a landmark so close to home was a rewarding experience for our entire team. It allowed us to showcase our expertise while supporting the preservation of a valued piece of local history.
Hargreaves Foundry is renowned for delivering high-quality cast iron solutions that combine durability, heritage aesthetics, and modern engineering. From bespoke designs to timeless classics, our products are trusted by architects, contractors, and conservationists across the UK
