I have used a little wood ash, just to get rid of it, in the garden 
and in the compost -but would refrain from using too much more than a 
dusting -or more frequent than once a year...

I think fireplace ash may be best used in the outhouse and is also 
excellent as a high-temperature-tolerant insulation material...
