Popped my head in a loft today and shot right back out. Full of insulation stuffed in red plastic bags. Called it in to the boss. Asbestos or not?

Late 40's early 50's "may" have had asbestos insulation (monkey dung) or asbestos blanket around a cylinder
It may also have asbestos cement stuff or aib soffits, artex or the like tho.

There is always something that will kill you :smile:
