We've got a wood burning stove in our house. Or at least, I assume it's a
wood burner, as the previous owners put it in. What affects what I can put
in it (ie, can I chuck coal in?) and so on?

You probably won't burn coal effectively unless there is a grate with
a gap underneath it. It it doesn't have a grate, then it's wood only.
