Wood burner going in there? Or guessing by the bricks in the photo, filling it in. Do you need to keep flue ventilated?

All those bricks came out of there (!) originally a gas fire. Possibly a wood burner - we like the idea but not really needed as it’s a smallish room and I already went a bit OTT with the radiator specs. We couldn’t find any fireplaces we liked so I’ll just make it good and maybe tile the inside. Yep to a vent too.

Ah man, what a beautiful fireplace. I just ripped out our one and only remaining ‘period feature’, sure was glad when I saw the lintel and realised it was straight forward.
