When the houses were built, the gas supply was generally run to the kitchen in steel pipe under the floor. If the floor was concrete it was buried in the floor.

Yes the original house carcase usually cooker fire and often a fridge or washboiler point, the boiler supply is a later addition in my view.
 
Do u think apart from the cooker there is other gas pipes in that wall that have been capped off?
