Just a screen, maybe heavier than regular window screen. The vent would supply air for combustion and also fresh dry air needed when you are drying stuff by the fire. An outlet vent is also needed for winter it should be 1/3 to 1/2 down from the ceiling. In summer a vent in the top of the room is nice to let hot air out.
A trap door in the floor over a hole in the ground is what the old timers used for a fridge.
