Building regs are actually fairly sane on staircases IMHO.

Yep. Just broke my foot today falling down three steps of my genuine
authentic 19th century wooden stairs.
They are going no matter what the conservation officer thinks !!!!!!

Hi,

Are you really going to rip out a 100+ year old staircase because you
tripped and hurt your foot?


Yes ! They are lethal anyway as headroom is 5'6", have no proper
bannisters and are steeper than 45 degrees. House is not listed or anything
and even my BCO took an instant dislike to them as well on seeing them.
