The original hearth tiles were missing in 1984. While cleaning out the ash dump, many fragments of the original tiles were found, but no complete tiles. After piecing the fragments together, the original design was determined, but after 25 years of looking for matching tiles, only two were found, so other Victorian black and white tiles were used to complete the hearth in the Library. Below is how the hearth would have looked when original in 1892.
