I’ve just started replacing my nasty fibreglass loft with sheep wool insulation. Above our bedroom there was a water tank and cylinder. They built a dodgy shelf originally, we’ve now replaced the system so I have moved the tank which was sat on top of the shelf seen on the picture and I’ll be removing the cylinder shortly. Should I be ok to simply cut away the stand/shelf. Also on one of the pictures there are 2 things I’m unsure of, one is the planks nailed from the roof joists to the loft floor, I assume these we’re nailed in to create more support for the tanks and should be ok removing these now? The other things is a bare wire that zigzags around the rafters, it doesn’t seem to connect to anything so as its a 1920’s house was unsure if it was possibly used for hanging clothes?
Just been told these could be floor hangers, however they’re only in the section of our loft above our bedroom. Basically all the interior walls of the house go straight up into the loft so the loft has separate sections and the main rafters rest on these walls.
