    Red and black chequred pattern - Market for old Victorian Floor Tiles?

    I have just taken up a floor of the red and black Victorian tiles... I know, it's an absolute travesty! I was wondering if there was any market for these - room was around 1m x 3m and the majority came up whole. Just seems such a shame for them to end up in the skip!! TIA for any responses.
