There is an old Victorian fireplace in what will soon (hopefully) be the DSs' room.
Is is a cast iron insert with original tiles and a wooden surround. If we keep it it eneds to be removed, a new slate hearth added (which I have), re-fitted properly and the surround altered as it had been botched about.
We will never use this fireplace, and it does eat into the available wall space, the room has a large sqaure bay so has quite limied wall space.
Would it be sacriligious to remove it altogether and sell it on? I like period features but am less keen when they serve no purpose other than to take up space...
Any thoughts?
