Apologies in advance because this isn't strictly "Period Property" related as I suspect these are too new but I can't think of anywhere else to go for help.
I bought a stack of bricks in a local auction a while back. Some of them are from storage heaters but I'm not sure how old they are. I'm currently designing a cob oven for the garden and it occurs to me that they're potentially quite handy for it as storing heat will be useful. If anyone can recognise them, can you tell me...
How old are they?
Could they take the heat of a fire/oven?
Could they be used as the oven floor?
Would they contain asbestos?
Any information or just somewhere to look for information on them would be very handy.
Thanks in advance.
