Hi all,

A quick question, when did plasterboard first come into common use ?

http://www.drywallhowto.com/drywall-history.shtml

Unfortunately for the claims made in that page, the British Plaster Board
Company was formed in 1915, a year before plaster board was supposedly
invented. They put the invention date at 1888.
