so I'm looking for a way to plumb it in that gives good mechanical fixing to a concrete block wall. I could make something with a bit of steel plate and a couple of bib tap wall plates, but is there anything available (at a sensible price) that isn't designed for bathroom bar mixers?Information here may be outdated?
Chase out the wall for the pipes and plaster over? Or are you planning on mounting it on a frame so the pipes are surface mounted rather than buried?

I agree. If you want it neat make a fookin big 'ole, put in structure that really supports it [wood plate/metal plate, according to your skill set] and cement the structure into the wall.
I cant remember how my similar fittings mounted, but I ended up tiling with some means of fitting them to the pipes afterwards.
I should have been clearer (again!) This will be buried in the wall and plastered/tiled over. Since asking, I've found this:

which is more-or-less what I was thinking of. Any other suggestions?
