The house in which I grew up had one single 13 amp socket per bedroom, one in the dining room, one double in the kitchen and one double in the living room. Seemed adequate at the time.
Bedroom sockets almost never used.
Kitchen had one side of the double used for the fridge, and the other side spare for the washing machine. or anything else.
Living room had one side of the double for the TV with other spare for vacuum cleaner or maybe a heater.
Single socket in dining room was used for the Christmas tree.
Also a few 2 amp sockets on the lighting circuits.
4 way Wylex consumer unit, but only 3 ways used.
I remember delivery of the fridge, the washing machine and the TV as being new and exciting. The service was 40 amps 240 volts AC. Later increased to 60 amps.
