I think you will need a double skinned flue for a wood burner, there is probably only a single skinned one in for a gas fire.You probably won't need a flue lining if your chimney is sound tho and you can rip the old one out and stick a chimney pot on instead of the metal cowl
you need to put a flat plate(forgot the name of it) to cap it.
Don't ask a flue lining company (or stove installing company) whether or not you need a flue liner, all you'll get is "but of course".
never ever ever buy logs.
