In front of the chimney breast, there was once a stone hearth, now long gone and replaced with some old planks (not proper floor boards) crudely nailed down, making the floor here very uneven.
We decided the best thing to do was to bung down a slab of chipboard and tile it with some nice old looking stone tiles.
Actually, the tiles don't look very old yet, but you wait until they've been grouted, had 2 coats of antique stone oil and a beeswax polish....

See now, I want to know how they press that oil out of those antique stones. And do they squeal?
