The house is Edwardian, these are from 1987, so not really suitable.
I can't pretend these new doors are exactly period correct, but as all the other doors in the house are horizontal panelled shaker doors, these fit the bill without going to the expense (or trouble) of custom doors, I managed to find the correct door handles/backplates from 1905 that match the rest of the doors, so now they are all painted up white, they look pretty good.

The finished doors, much cleaner looking (to me at least)
