Where to get this wallpaper?

Does anyone know where I can get this wallpaper? I need a replace a torn section so it needs to match the rest of the room (it will be painted over so the colour doesn't matter if different).  I've looked in Wilko and B&M but couldn't find it... No idea what it's called so don't know what to google either. Thanks!

    Thanks, but none of them appear to match the one I need.

    No, it's a different one. The wallpaper I need is quite old (probably 20+ years) so not sure if they still make it.

    How do you know this from unintelligible photo of the second one, 'White Woodchip Blown Wallpaper'?

    I tried to squint at it so could sort of make it out... But anyway, no B&Q nearby to go and see it in person.

    eBay, they've all types.
    Also check local selling sites as it's amazing what's left by sellers and not wanted by the new owners.

  • You’ll never match wallpaper that’s 20 years old, it’s an ideal time to redecorate.
     Came across this last week will pop into crown to see if it’s still available 
    Maybe, just once, someone will call me 'Sir' without adding, 'You're making a scene.'

    homedecorhull.com have got something similar.  They're calling it Wood Chip effect paintable wallpaper. Google wood chip wallpaper uk and click on "images" and see if you can see anything matching.

    Amazon have some proper wood chip as well, made by Winsome.

    Way back, just as summer was starting, I decided time to redecorate the landing. Took the woodchip of the ceiling and very quickly found out why the stuff had been used in the first place. Ended up stripping not only the wallpaper off, but the plaster too. External wall in the stairwell is now insulated, extra insulation stuffed in to the ceiling, and new plasterboard put up all round. Still haven't finished decorating though (back is playing up).

    Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –
