The house forgives you . It is a solid Victorian wall which is decorated ( original ) in ashlar which is plaster work made to simulate stone blocks .. a favourite in the Victorian Gothic revival .. so the picture hooks go easily into the very thick horsehair plaster no problem and make good purchase.. havent had a faller yet !
