Update!

Right, I've just lifted the carpet again to have another look. The board on the ground is not chipboard, nor is it ply, or wood of any kind. I just had a dig at it to see if I can work out what it is...

It's incredibly dense (hence the solidness of the floor). It I dig at it it seems to have a cement or plaster like quality. I can dig a grove into it with a bit of force and a screwdriver. It's a browny colour. It's definitely not wood!

i think before anything else I need to establish exactly what this is. Any ideas anyone?
