This fireplace is in our eat-in kitchen. When we first purchased our home 18 years ago we were unaware of its existence. It was cement rendered and boarded up. We removed the cladding and had it sandblasted. An old builder we had doing some work on the place told us that this fireplace was never meant to be seen bare. The bricks used are uneven and second hand and for structural purposes only. We love its character. There is a corresponding but smaller fireplace on the other side of the wall in our bathroom (which was once the lounge room).
