Can you explain the central heating one?

Country houses occupied by the upper classes are traditionally drafty cold places, due to their size and high ceilings and in many cases lack of central heating (see my earlier post in this thread) and sometimes rattley old windows.

By contrast, people living in modern small urban houses and flats these days usually like to keep them swelteringly and unhealthily hot and stuffy (which is why colds and flu bugs circulate so fast, and why people living like that are pathetically vulnerable to them).

As I said I have such a house with highe ceilings and large bay single glazed windows, as well as fire places in each room. However more people have installed central heating in these types of houses.
