The hinge is 3.5 inches high, and 2 inches wide, (when open), and I cant
seem to find any sources of this size of hinge - any ideas.

Errm Screwfix has hinges up to 100mm high, which sounds suspiciously
close to 3.5in, in fact up to 4" high "Heavy Duty Double Pressed Steel
Butt Hinge" £11.94


I was hoping to get away without any woodwork, but it seems like the
sensible way is to do it properly with 3 or 4 new hinges and recesses.

100 years old doesn't sound as if it will be anything other than a
standard butt hinge, but if you need "Holy Lord" or other unusual types,
try http://www.pastiron.co.uk/ which has a wide range of reproduction
18th and 19thC hinges.

Priced in $, so cheap if you can get them to ship to the UK.


Thanks for the help.
