I need to hang some stuff from the ceiling (3 panels, 4kg and 2 mounting points each). They came with toggle bolts for mounting in plasterboard but I’m nervous about Victorian plaster - is it likely that the cross battens are screwed to rafters above? They seem a better bet for mounting...
That's a lovely ceiling. Can you get access from above and double check where your joists are? It seems unlikely that they would be in the same pattern as the cross battens. Joists are usually running in one direction.
