In the past the plaster was lime, but this was soon replaced by modern plastering methods with gypsum or cement-based plasters to speed-up the setting time.
Gypsum based plasters tend to be used in new builds, and are a lot more brittle and harder compared to traditional lime putty which is found in older constructions.
Modern day plasters are premixed gypsum based for the render and finishing plasters.
