I have just pulled up the parquet floor im my living room assumming that it was an oak wood block floor,after handling the floor it is easy to see that it is definately not oak(wishful thinking)
C an any body hazard a guess as to what type it would be from my poor description provided.
the house is 1920 and floor looks original, the blocks are about 21mm thick, they are not tongue and grooved, there are no visible knots in the wood but they do feel quite light.
They do look quite like a form of pine from the bottom where there is no bitumen but did they make woodblock floor out of pine?
cheers paul
ps thanks for the reply to previous question ' would'
