Fireplace in the pub
It was cold and dark Tuesday night and us runners gathered in front of the unique fireplace at the Pelican Inn. Roger, who's a builder, remarked on the chimney not smoking at all. Like the fireplaces designed by Count Rumford in the 1700s, the flue here draws perfectly. Being on the floor level, it's like sitting in front of a camp fire.

Wow what a great looking pub and I dig the quote on the mantle wish I was there enjoying a Black and Tan.
To artisanwilsonproj: By golly I never even noticed it. Good eye! Upon examination with mag. glass and Google, it's "Fear knocked at the door and faith answered. No one was there" - Old English Proverb
Wow,...the Pelican Inn. I haven't been there for decades. What a great place!
