    I found your blog very interesting and was very touched that I had been quoted.
    I just wanted to point out that there are a few”shell house” which have floors done with bones and teeth. Shell houses were often created by recycling leftovers from the estates kitchens and slaughter houses. The teeth used were often deer or horses. The bones were a mixture of sheep and cow. There are very few floors done with shells as they cant take the wear and tear. Todate, I have restored floors using sheeps knuckle bones, cows vertibrates and horse and deers teeth. But I must add, it is difficult to come by them nowadays, as I am sure you can image.
    Good luck with the blog, it is a wonderful that you have spent the time to do it, Blott
