Hi all, I'm trying to thread some house pipe down from the loft to the
living room in my old (roughly 1890's) house (Improptu conduit to
allow me to feed network cable into the living room).

There are no fireplaces in the house and the chimneys on the roof have
been capped so I don't have any worries about a future owner
mistakenly trying to light a fire (I hope at least).

Anyway, I've drilled a hole and keep trying to thread the hose pipe
down, but I think I keep hitting the 1st floor bedroom (have dropped
some steel bearings down and heard the thud but not seen them in the
living room too).

So, I'm wondering, how does a chimney work in a two storey house that
had two fireplaces (living room and master bedroom). Does the chimney
split sideways (one side for one room the other side for the other
room), or, is it a back and front configuration, or, is it just on big
flue?

I've drilled my hole towards the left side of the stack in the loft
and I don't want to go drilling extra holes willy nilly but am
wondering if I move it far to the right if I would be more likely to
make it to the living room.

Hope someone can understand what I'm asking (I think I've phrased it
all in a round about manner) and hopefully I'm not asking a really
silly question.

Thanks for any answers.
