The kitchen, before. Isn't it delightful?

Check the coal powered oven out. That was the only source of heat in the house when we moved in (in the middle of winter). Me and my bro spent a good few nights huddled around that thing in our wooly hats and jumpers.

The reason it looks so smokey is because the chimney was a bit blocked up (with hundreds of dead birds, we later found out). We faced a choice between carbon monoxide poisoning or hypothermia. I know which way I'd rather go.
