Cob: double-faced fire and floorplan help

<P>I have seen two houses from the late 1700s to early 1800's that had fireplaces that adjoined both rooms. They were back to back, smaller in the kitchen, larger in the great room (combo living-dining room) apparently sharing a flue side by side but separated by a brick masonry wall. I think the dampers were separate for each.<BR></P>

<DIV></DIV>>I don't like the open kitchens to the livingrooms, so can a (masonry) fire be open on both sides - one to the livingroom and one to the kitchen, and then pipes to the other rooms?
