Selling this bathroom suite which came from my gran's house in North Wales, it was removed when the house was refurbished a few years ago and has been kept in storage until now. 
 
It was made by 'Standard' in the 1940's, and the date 3/6/1941 is written on the back of the basin. There is also a letter 'R' and the word 'YORK'.
 
'Standard Made In England' is written on the inside of the cistern and there's also a number on the bottom on the inside of the cistern. The internal cistern pieces are believed to be original and made of ceramic.  
 
There's a hairline crack on the front left-hand side of the cistern next to the flush running from the top to the bottom - see photograph. I believe this could easily be repaired.
 
The basin comes complete with the original taps, faucet, fittings, and plug which is also thought to be original. As well as the original toilet seat, bracket and connecting pipe.
 
Apart from the crack and some corrosion on the taps, all parts are in good condition, particularly given it is a modern antique at 83 years old. 
 
Let me know if you would like to come take a look.
 
Any questions, please ask.

    • Yes, at first I assumed that the bin men had taken flowering plants from my front garden while getting at my brown food bin, instead of reaching over the wall. I was very confused as I couldn't see any obvious gaps. Surely taking Toadflax from a resident's wall is not part of the council's remit? What next, are they going to come round and trim hedges in front gardens? 🤬
    • Oh, so that was the council.  Someone ripped some lovely flowering Toadflax from our wall and threw it in the gutter.  I assumed that a child had done it.  How strange?
    • Black open bag found on pavement on Goodrich Road this morning filled with electrical type items. Please message me if yours with description of what should be inside. Thanks
    • Every year council workers come round and remove "weeds" from pavements. These "weeds" are wild flowers which as well as brightening up the urban environment attract pollinating insects including bees. Can someone explain to me what is the purpose of this removal? The plants do not seem to be causing any kind of obstruction to pedestrians, and they make my walks around the area more pleasant. Or had done. It seems a bit odd that on the one hand the council are deliberately planting areas of wild flowers (eg on Goose Green, albeit not apparently maintaining them very well) and/or apparently letting previously cultivated areas go wild (eg on Goose Green roundabout) but on the other hand they are paying employees to come round and remove wild flowers. Why? Am I missing something here? I came out the other day to find a small pile of flowering  Toadflax and Alkanet outside my house. I was totally bemused until a neighbour told me the reason.
