The most obvious choice would be to place it in the "living room" described on the original building, close to the dining room. But something's not quite right. Should someone face the fireplace, there's not enough room at the right. Also, if you look at the far right, you should see the widows like the one that are above the "Mick and Mariane were here". But you don't. Arghh ! So that could be anywhere else.
Luckily, we have something else. For George Harrison 24th birthday, Henry Grossman photographed him in his house. Two pictures are interesting for this clue. One of them shows his hanging a picture framed on a wall.
On the foreground, there's something quite interesting : a brick circle that has the same shape than the fireplace (1). On the back ground (2), just behind George, you see a door that is place exactly like the door leading to the old garage if you're outside. And on the bottom, you see a curvature on the bottom of the wall that looks like in the following picture. Please keep in mind the decoration of the curtains.
Next, two years later, John Haynes came to visit George and photograph him in Kinfauns
On the picture above you see the same curvature on the wall that you saw on George birthday session. Above you see the caracteristic windows that are seen above the "Mick and Marianne were here" psychedelic grafiti. Bingo, now you know where the place the psychedelic fireplace ! That's in the "porthole window room", on the other side of the wall. My guess is that the original fireplace, was translated to the other side of the wall. To support that, I beleive that the picture below was taken in 1966-1967 when the old garage was concerted onto an additional room. Amond the work here you can see that the old chimney has been destroyed
To go full circle, you might ask youself, where does the door as the right of the fireplace leads to ? Well, to the extended kitchen. but, that's the next story !
