Our first house was a tiny cottage in the midlands that had a former methodist chapel attached that we converted and had a mezzanine bedroom - similar to that but on a very much smaller scale. Had a wood burner for the chapel part that took a while to heat the room as it was double height, but then the bedroom was boiling.
Rest of the heating was a coal-fired rayburn that needed feeding from the coal pile outside every morning. Quite a relief to move back to London's famous London and proper heating.
