In the middle of renovating our home and found fireplace behind boards in front room. Have already been stripping the surround. the hearth is either covered in wood or has been replaced by wood. The surround has tiles some damaged, not sure if original. The opening has a metal edge. Above the opening we are not sure if it is part of the surround. The bottom of the grate is tiled. We want to use it but not sure what to do next? We are DIY amateurs.
Would be grateful of any suggestions please. (sorry about photo angles not sure why round the wrong way!)
