I’ve just uncovered these and would be interested in anyone’s thoughts on wood species and approximate age. The main boards are irregular but mainly 12 to 18cm wide. Thank you.

Anyone? I uncovered some more and think there might be two different species of wood here. I’d be grateful for anyone else’s views.

I think they look like pine or maybe spruce. In your first photo someone has butchered them, presumably to get underneath.

Your second post looks like pine

These are from my bedroom, late 20’s/early 30’s house in the northwest.

I think they are just standard pine floorboards. The size has changed now, so it’s difficult to match in new boards (so I’m told). You have some damaged boards, presumable to access for plumbing etc. Which have not been repaired well.

Old floorboards are much wider and hardwood, often elm.
