Old Fire Surround


Hi all, this is only my second post, this surround was ripped out of a very old large house where I am currently working because the new owners, my boss didnt like it. The house is near Manchester UK and owned by a football player(soccer). it has a large oak staircase
what do you think

Re: Old Fire Surround


I'm pretty sure if you could remove that and not break the pieces and crate it up, you could sell that on eBay for a small fortune here in the states.

I can understand why they wanted it removed, though. It is sorta a hodge-podge of styles, isn't it? Looks like it was modified/added to over the years.

Re: Old Fire Surround


That would make a nice bar-back.
