I’ll be closed this Saturday as I’m away camping with some of Seth’s boy gang mates from school and their parents, sorry about that 👍🏻

A quick turnaround on this pair of Victorian cast iron fire surrounds salvaged a couple of weeks ago. Both available for sale. Now that I have a stripping tank on-site I should be able to restore a lot more fires if I aren’t out and about salvaging 👍🏻 🔥
