    Hi All, looking to possibly put a stove in this space, we had hoped to put a landscape insert but not sure that will be possible. Is it possible to centre the fireplace?house is a semi d with a shared chimney with next door

    What are the alcoves like either side of the chimney breast? I assume they are equal size...

    You could centre it (on the chimney breast) by building a false wall (or a wall :) ) either side of the chymney breast -
    will end up with different size alcoves though.

    Could build out the alcoves entirely to attempt to hide the offset of the fire.

    But as mentioned - you cant move the hole :)
