It's so good that you have documented old cottages. Such lovely houses! For those of us who know we have Irish ancestors, but can't make it over there yet for a visit, we can look at your lovely videos! Thank you.

I loved the bed in the corner. It made such sense as in the winter it was cold and lighting two fires in the house was not always possible, the turf might run out. Also great for the any one who was ill as it kept them close. I know that the enclosed stoves are safer and don't smell as open fires do, but I love the smell of turf burning and the poking of the ashes as sparks fly up.
