What is a Fireplace in a Kitchen Called?

Back in the day, kitchens needed a fireplace to keep the fire burning for both heating and cooking. This is also known as a “hearth.” The hearth is made up of at least one big, flat hearthstone and can be partially enclosed by a reredos (which is just a low wall behind the hearth), a fireplace, an oven, or even a smoke hood. So, basically, it’s where all the cozy magic used to happen in a home!

The Origin of Cobble Hill

Here’s a quick history lesson about the popular Brooklyn neighborhood, Cobble Hill. Back in the day, like way back in the mid-17th century, Dutch farmers started settling in this area north of Red Hook known as Punkiesberg. Governor Peter Stuyvesant gave the green light for farming. Fast forward to the Battle of Long Island in 1776, the Continental Army came through and called the area “Cobble Hill” because it reminded them of a hill they had fortified in Boston.
