Faux stucco siding?

We recently started work on an "as is" house we purchased. The house is english tudor and was built inthe 80's.

There was extensive water damamage to one of the upstair bedrooms. We removed the walls and flooring and replaced it. However, in order to remove some of the wood, a portion of the exterior wall had to be removed. We thought is was stucco, but in removing the section there was no wire it was - it looks like particle board with a layer of paper between the board and the "stucco".

I have tried to research it on the internet to find a way to replace or repair but have had no success.

Does anyone have an idea what I am dealing with and how to repair it?

If it is what I think it is, it is 4X8 sheets of masonite siding made to resemble stucco. It was slightly popular in the 70's and 80's. I don't know if they still make it or not. I would check with masonite and plywood dealers to see if they know if you can still get it. Of course none of this applies if it isn't 4X8 sheets.

They are 4x8 panels. So now the hunt to replace 2 in hopes of not having to replace it all.

Thank you for your input!

Welcome to the forums.

The OP is listed as a guest and that was six years ago, I don't think you're going to get a response from them.
