Can anyone tell me anything about this fireplace?

Bit baffled about this - is that a stove (pic attached) or a fireplace with a sort of cover on it?
Also doesn’t seem to have chimney breast, although its an old stone cottage. So am a bit confused whether it’s a fireplace or not!

It’s an open fire. My husband’s parents have one like it it. They are designed to be more efficient than a standard open fire.

That cover is the fireguard.

Thanks @Zazdar. I love an open fire, but not so cosy if I can’t see the flames!

The guard should be made of perforated mesh that you can see through.

You don’t normally use the fireguard while you are in the room though so it shouldn’t be an issue in any case.
