Likely has energy efficient in floor heat. Pretty common back in the 15th century. ;)
Well, I wouldn't necessarily discount the possibility. But it's not likely.
The Romans had an early form of in-floor heating called a hypocaust, which used hot air circulating under raised floors and sometimes through wall flues to warm rooms .
It was used especially in public bathhouses and in some wealthy homes, since it was expensive and labor-intensive to build and run . I saw this in a couple of excavated buildings in Pompeii . Way ahead of its time . Then again the Romans made concrete that is still solid even today. And the formula as far as I know has yet to be duplicated.

And here I was joking....Not sure the Brits were as inventive as the Romans but what the hell.... learn something new every day....
