Hello!
Why didn`t I see this forum before? *lol*
We are about to restore an old country house from 1812. We took it over this year in Marts. Insulation is 100 mm rockwool and the inner walls 15 mm gibsonite elements. This was what we found behind the elements in the kitchen. *lol* Walls of heavy oak timber and in between old bricks made of unburned clay. A to-dream-wall. *lol* - even if it looks a little scraped now. *lol*

After taking the pict. the mörtel (sand, calcium and cement) was added to make a smooth finish. *lol* All will look better in a few days, when Lene has put paint on.
