Wanted: Victorian corbels, internal doors and fireplaces

Recommended Posts

Massive long shot I know. We're doing up a late Victorian that was savaged in the 80's and has no original features left.


If anyone has any plaster corbels for the hallway kicking around(!) let me know.


We're also interested in cast iron fireplaces and 4 panel pine doors. The dimensions we need for doors are


685 X 1980

760 X 2000

740 X 1950 (x2)

745 X 1950 (x2)

Hi there,


Is this the sort of thing you were looking for? We took this out of a fireplace in our 1st floor back bedroom of our Victorian Terrace house but then turned that into the bathroom and don't have room to put it back. It probably dates from around 1880's when the house was built. Good condition, it could do with a clean but it was never caked in layers of paint so the details are still really nicely defined. dimensions are 810mm wide by 920mm high. Not looking to sell it for loads so make a suggestion.


Thanks


Teddy

    • Dishing the dirt is generally fine when it comes to politicians and in Farage's case he often deserves it but  nothing illegal  has been done. It is not illegal for him to give his partner a sizeable amount of money with which to buy a house and have it registered in her name. He is 64 years old and his partner is 16 years younger and so he most likely is making plans to minimise IHT. There is a sliding scale for IHT but basically a gift is free of IHT if the gift is made 7 years before the donor dies. Farage is 64 years old and his partner is 16 years younger. In 7 years time, if he lives that long, he will be 71 years old. Given that he smokes like a chimney and drinks like a fish, his odds on getting beyond 71  years may be pretty slim.  A similar  process is followed by the "bank of mum and dad"  where parents  give money to their kids to fund purchase of a property. Many who are not cash rich will mortgage their home and so release equity to fund their kids property. We did it as have many of our friends.
