Sweeping in Petworth.
Petworth is a small market town of narrow streets and tightly packed period cottages, with a high proportion of listed buildings for its size. The flues here are old, and many have been altered more than once over a couple of centuries of people changing their minds about fireplaces.
That history is the recurring theme. A single stack in a Petworth cottage may serve flues from different eras, some in use, some abandoned, some quietly connected to each other by a breach that appeared when a wall was taken out. Sweeping such a chimney is straightforward; establishing what actually connects to what sometimes is not.
The surrounding estate villages add a steady run of larger period properties with multiple flues, inglenooks and, in a few cases, ranges still in use.
