My childhood home was a new build in 1953 and had a one single brown Nettle socket in each room. A Nettle double adapter allowed the table-lamp and the TV to be used together, but presumably we had to unplug the TV to use the radiogram.

All the plugs were Nettle to begin with, suggesting they were supplied with the installation.
