We are planning to brick up an opening in an internal wall in our
Victoran house. It is where the two main rooms have previously been
knocked into one in the 1960s. I am assuming that there is a beam
across the opening. We will eventually have a professional plasterer
to plaster it at the same time as all the other plastering jobs around
the house are done.

What do people advise to use: bricks or blocks? It will not be load
bearing and will be built on the pre-existing victorian brickwork
which comes up as far as floor level. opening is 2.2m high and 2.6m
wide (~4" thick)

many thanks for any aadvice anyone cares to give.
