Parquet flooring is a type of wood flooring in which small wood blocks or strips are installed alongside one another to generate a distinctive design across the entirety of the floor. Parquet was traditionally installed with each individual strip carefully laid, but modern parquet is available in bigger tiles or planks to provide the same effect. Parquet floor is a very elegant flooring solution which works best in large rooms or hallways where the attractive design can be best displayed. Parquet comes in a wide variety of different styles, the most common of which are herringbone, chevron or checkerboard. Parquet can also be manufactured from a huge variety of different woods, but oak is the most popular, along with mahogany, maple and cherry. Modern parquet floor comes in either solid wood or engineered wood types, the latter of which function several sheets of wood with a fibre board core and a top layer of the desired appearance of hardwood. Parquet flooring is durable and needs little maintenance. It is, however, unsuitable for areas that contain lots of moisture or humidity as the wood will warp or flex under these conditions. Parquet is usually installed utilising a number of tiles which are glued to the subfloor with an adhesive. A professional parquet floor company will be able to suggest the most suitable wood types and styles for your home.

Newport is a city and unitary authority area in south east Wales, on the River Usk close to its confluence with the Severn Estuary, 12 miles (19 kilometres) northeast of Cardiff. At the 2011 census, it was the third largest city in Wales, with a population of 145,700. The city forms part of the Cardiff-Newport city, with a population of 1,097. Newport has actually been a port since medieval times, when the initial Newport Castle was constructed by the Normans. The town outgrew the earlier Roman town of Caerleon, right away upstream, as well as obtained its initial charter in 1314. It expanded considerably in the 19th century, when its port came to be the emphasis of coal exports from the eastern South Wales Valleys. Up until the surge of Cardiff from the 1850s, Newport was Wales' biggest coal-exporting port. Newport was the site of the last large-scale armed insurrection in Britain, the Newport Increasing of 1839 led by the Chartists. This was led by the Chartist John Frost which brought about the re-branding of the Duffryn High School right into John Frost School. In the 20th century, the docks decreased in significance, yet Newport stayed a vital production and design centre. It was given city status in 2002. Newport organized the Ryder Cup in 2010 and was the place for the 2014 NATO summit.
