extremely old fuse board?

[Welshsparky]

Has anybody come across a single phase fuse board with an isolation switch on the front to isolate all circuits, which requires taking the front off to get to the fuses? Their fairly small and look just like an isolator , I didn't actually realise until I took the front off that it was the fuse board for the entire wiring system! Are these still seen as acceptable?

The job itself is just a fan in a bathroom , should i tell the customer the fuse board HAS to be changed before i carry out work?
