    Obviously this isn't done finished and there are small bits I need to go back to but I've managed to strip most of the wallpaper/paint layers off and in some places it's gone back to the plaster which seems in good condition considering its age.

    And as you can see, I'm short and will need to purchase a step ladder to do that but

    That's what I'd have expected the plaster to look like.. I think it would definitely look better if u got that skimmed over for a smooth finish
