Wood burning stoves are great. I helped my dad line the chimney of their bungalow 3-4 years ago. It was a lightweight, flexible metal pipe we managed to feed down from above. This only became a bit fiddly (and dirty) when we got to the bend in the chimney, just above the fireplace. A few bags of vermiculite insulation were poured down around the flue to insulate it. I think the idea of that is to keep the smoke & gasses hot, so the chimney draws better. The chimney pot was then capped off with a metal vent to stop rain going straight down the hole.
