About 50 years ago I saw a relatively close neighbour cycling past with a cwt. bag of turf propped up on the bar of the bike. I remember it distincitivly because it was Christmas Day.
He wasn’t overly energetic in the Summer, a fondness for porter and all that…
He’s still to be had which is like the 3rd secret of Fatima.

He has a Stanley 8.A noble range.
I’ve an insert stove and an open fire that has a door on it if you want to have it as a stove
So what’s the story- do you dump the turf in the corner and then face it, or is every layer as pristine?
I’d say you’ll knife any lad who tries burning any of it.
Hahaha ah no, ya it’s just fucked in and reaked as ya go along. Keeps everything tidy and you can put a lot more in to a smaller spot.

Comes from mother nature goes back to mother nature, you couldn’t burn cleaner than turf and timber

I presume that’s why they closed down all the turf burning power plants
