What is the wall construction? (As there are several types that "are not

Of course.

It's a wall that *should be* solid, brick, rest of it was nice to drill
into.


What do you reckon it is? Voids in the mortar, or those horrid hollow
bricks?

In either case, resin would do if you need a monster fixing.

For normal loads, how about:

I really do rate Fischer - they have products that exceed the humble red
plug in most applications and are easy to obtain (SF/TS stock a fair
part of the range, Amazon for the rest).


Rawlplug UNO take some beating IMO.
