Does anyone know if a 1930's London build will have asbestos in the fireplace? Recently knocked out a partially covered fireplace to find this
Is there asbestos in the fireplace

That's the "builders opening", and those bricks are very unlikely to contain asbestos.
From the way the bricks were knocked about at the side I suspect a back boiler used to live there... If there was any asbestos, it left with the rest of the boiler. Is there a flue liner further up?
As he said, only way to be sure is to test but there is nothing there that looks like it was constructed with asbestos -containing materials.
