Our prefab did not have any asbestos panels and was all made from aluminium. It did have asbestos lagging around the flue pipe, but that was it. I don't know what type of asbestos was used in the others.
Hi there Jeremy
I will pass on your comment to the Curator responsible, and ask that they reply to you here on the page, or via email.

Many thanks
