closerlook Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 Hi Guys, first timer here. These pics. are from a house built in 1951. The chimney is exposed in the kitchen and has been painted.

closerlook Posted June 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 Thanks guys, that's what I thought, The roof was to steep to be on. All I could see with bins. was a clay liner with repair work to the brickwork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
