Hi, list
I think that I probably know the answer but I'm an capital "A" amateur, so I want to make sure that I'm not overlooking an obvious easy solution to my problem.
I've got an 1816 stone house, stuccoed on the outside and with plaster right on the stone inside. One room is largish (18x22) and tends to be dark in the middle, so I want to cluster a few high-hats over the conversation area. To get electricity to the lights and put a switch on the wall, however, it seems to me that I'm going to have to make a trench for the wires. That will demand a lot of chopping on the walls and, I imagine, an incredible mess -- plus the project of plastering the wires over later.
The existing outlets in the room are in the walls, so I presume that's what was done when the house was electrified in the 1940s.
Can anyone suggest an alternative?
Thanks
Mark
