What if you have sockets on said skirtings though?

(Thinking back to the Victorian place I grew up in - tall (ish)
skirtings (c. 8") - all sockets surface mounted on the skirtings)


Then you would expect to find wires either vertically above or bellow
the said outlet.

.... and somehow be expected not to hang pictures or shelves above
them, duh (as opposed to not hanging them on the skirting board).
