I'm wanting to put up something on an old garden wall which is now part of a conservatory. The wall is made up of primarily of flints on the outside and rubble behind. The wall has recently been repointed so (a) it looks nice (b) is sound.
There'll be a backing board of thick marine ply (about 70cm long and 15cm high) that I'll be screwing through and I'll probably need to put in 3 or 4 fixings in the wall to take a total weight of up to 15kg..
The size of the backing board is such that I can dodge the flints and drill straight into the mortar.
However I'm wondering what the best fixing will be given that I will probably drill through thr mortar into rubble and the mortar itself might not hold the weight.
Any advice will be appreciated.
