I boarded a loft recently. 1930's terrace house.
During this process I discovered a couple of vertical metal tubes (pipes) of about 10mm diameter sticking up about 3 inches above rafter level. These appeared to be at the corners of rooms where partitioning(?) would meet, or possibly above light switches (I didn't check).
Not knowing what these were and whether I could cut them off I left them be and cut holes in the loft boarding so that they were exposed.
Out of curiousity does anyone know what these are?
Next time I come across these I'd like to know what I can/can't do with them!
