Okay. Britain exported lots of architectural hardware elements.
Maybe you need to go to the receiving areas' libraries and look for
trade catalogues. I recall many years ago when I was researching
pressed tinplate architectural elements, you caould buy the internal
and external skins of building elements, which fit together in a
modular fashion we know quite well today. In the case of tinplate,
you could put together a building from the catalogue.
