They say good things come in small packages and, when it comes to the Little Wenlock Classic, it's certainly true. It's the perfect blend of old and new, combining cutting-edge design with traditional beauty. This compact stove fits in almost any space - an ideal choice for smaller homes and standard fireplaces.
And if its looks aren't impressive enough, the Little Wenlock Classic's energy efficiency certainly is. Through a combination of meticulous development, innovative engineering and intelligent design, the Little Wenlock Classic has a nominal output of 4.7kW - eliminating the need for an air vent in the room. It is supplied with a supplementary wood grate which allows the stove to achieve a breathtaking 81.2% efficiency, making it one of the most efficient stoves in the world.
Other features include a choice of top or rear flue
connection, a high chrome riddling grate, combustion air control,
built-in ash pan and the AGA Active Air Wash System which keeps the
glass clean. Available in matt black.

Coal (Large Nuts).
Precision-cast and expertly finished by skilled craftsmen,
every stove in the AGA range is built to last and uses the latest
technology to increase efficiency.
Hand-made to perfection
The cast-iron panels of an AGA stove are individually moulded in a
hand-finished cast. This allows our skilled craftsmen to create the
elegant curves and exquisite design details our iconic models are
renowned for.
Warms your home for longer
We use cast-iron for its excellent heat retention properties. Even
when the embers die away, heat continues to radiate throughout the
room. And thanks to the precision-engineered spinwheels and AGA
Active Airwash System, AGA stoves offer greater control of the
fire.
Build quality that lasts
Like all AGA products, our range of stoves is manufactured to an
exceptionally high standard. That's why they carry the CE mark - as
they fulfil all necessary European health, safety and environmental
protection legislation - and are HETAS (Heating Equipment Testing
and Approvals Scheme) listed. For further peace of mind, every AGA
stove comes with a five-year parts and one-year labour
warranty.

AGA Active Air Wash System
This clever technology is used to keep the glass of our stoves
clean, allowing a clear view of the fire, while ensuring every
stove runs as efficiently as possible. This guarantees maximum heat
output is achieved from the fuel used and minimises harmful
emissions. It also creates the perfect conditions for combustion by
carefully channelling fresh air below, around and above the
firebox. Before re-entering the atmosphere, any solid particles and
volatile gases produced by the fire are re-ignited and
destroyed.
Stove or open fire?
An open fire will warm the room, but it has
many drawbacks that a stove doesn't. For example, the majority of
heat produced by an open fire - up to 85% - will escape through the
chimney. Using a stove, heat remains in the room due to the warm
air that's continuously circulating around it. And, because an AGA
stove is made with cast-iron panels, it can store heat while the
stove is lit - so the heat continues radiating through the room
long after the embers have died away.
A stove is also much more efficient at circulating heat through
large rooms and the warmth can even rise up stairwells to landings.
This means you won't have to rely as much on other heating systems
within your home, which could in turn reduce your energy
bills.
Information on wood fuels
Unlike fossil fuels, such as coal, gas or oil,
wood is carbon neutral. This means that burning a log of wood only
produces as much carbon dioxide as a log decomposing on the forest
floor. If used in the right circumstances wood can be a highly
economical choice, too.
Dry seasoned wood contains up to 90% less
moisture than fresh cut wood, which means it produces less steam
and saves up to 50% of potential heat.
Also keep in mind that hard wood is a better
option than soft wood as it is slower to burn, meaning you will use
less.
Wood is a renewable fuel source that is gentler on the environment. It also helps the preservation of fossil fuels such as coal and oil.
Hints and tips
Information on solid fuels
There is a wide range of solid
fuels available. The main fuel sources used are coal,
anthracite and peat briquettes. If you're heating your home 24
hours a day, solid fuel is by far the most economical choice as it
generates more heat than wood. It is, however, a less renewable
fuel source. Heating your property with solid fuels could also help
to reduce condensation and eliminate household mould and
toxins.
