I live in an 1864 terraced almshouse. Originally no kitchen or bathroom just 2 up 1 down rooms with fireplaces, outside toilet and presumably cooked in the living room. In the bedroom there is a small central ceiling trap about 4 inches by 12 inches looks to be an original feature. What would have been its purpose?
prev chimney removal
  
next Lifespan of a roof tile?
