After a number of years 'unmming' and 'ahhing' we have finally decided to open up the fireplace in the Dining Room. This was built by the people who owned the house before us but they didn't really use it so blocked it in. This may mean a complete re-think of the use of the ground floor rooms but it's a first step and means that Santa can pop down the chimney this year rather than using the front door!!!
Obviously it's not finished yet - BB only knocked it all out today - we'll need to sort out a hearth and maybe a mantle piece. We still have a lovely dog-grate from our old house and hopefully that will fit.
