team tractor Posted December 18, 2019 Report Share Posted December 18, 2019 (edited) I’ve just removed this out of a customers house . It’s spotless except a little dirt around the waste. The house was spotless it came out of and had only been fitted a few years . ive looked online and they fetch £80-100 so I think £50 is fair . I was informed it was £300 a few years ago. collection only . Edited December 18, 2019 by team tractor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

figgy Posted December 19, 2019 Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 Known as a Belfast sink until they became trendy. Good price, sure someone will want it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good price, sure someone will want it. Apparently a Belfast is the chunky one as it’s industrial but this is a butler sink as it’s more refined .

Diver One Posted December 19, 2019 Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 I always thought that a Belfast sink was a lot shallower......maybe 6" deep? More like the style used in outhouses/garages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masmiffy Posted December 19, 2019 Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 The Belfast sink is a variation of the Butler sink; the only difference being that, traditionally, the Belfast had an overflow and the Butler had a shallower bowl with no overflow. Nowadays, both the Belfast and the Butler have overflows, although a weir overflow is only found on the Belfast sink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marsh man Posted December 19, 2019 Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 I have took several of those deep sinks out when I was working , most of the time they were left in the persons garden to keep plants in , we also took a few of the brown shallow ones that were used for washing out pots in the out houses , these were also put in the gardens , nowadays like you say they are worth a few bob , if only we had a crystal ball ..............that work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The aim was water coming down the stairs as tiloilets were all near the stone stairways. I never managed it but others did on occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agriv8 Posted December 19, 2019 Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 Mrs Agriv8 wants it as she may as well take a ceramic one to go with the stainless one she packs every time we go away ! And don’t get me started on the flipping shoes ! Regards Agriv8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
