What size chimney pot? (pic)

Morning,

Just a quick one, can someone guesstimate what size pot I would need to replace a single gas cowl. You'll see I have 3 'normal' pots and would like the fourth to match however I'm aware that there are various sizes.

Is there a standard here?

    Can you measure a brick at ground level, then zoom into your picture to estimate based on the size of the pot compared to a brick?

    Thanks IC, I'm more concerned with the width I think as they appear to be 300m/450m/600m etc.....

    Unless anyone has a good knowledge of htis, looks like I'll buy a few and return the unused - anyone?!

    Source them locally, then get your ladder out and measure them, prepare the chimney go and pick up correct one and finish the job.

    My betting is they are 300mm (assuming that is the standard size)

    Thanks mucky. The inside rim of my new one is indeed just over 10" and 300mm in height. Lovely stuff. Cheers
