.......there is a proper fireplace behind this lovely screen....although we do not use it...ever ! I grew up with coal fires and with getting them to light and to dispose of the ashes.....and said never again......good job we got central heating !
Looks like a lovely fireplace, but don't blame you for never lighting it. My wife had a wood-burning stove in her old house, and it was awful trying to get it lit and cleaning it out for the next round.
