  • It's a Victorian terraced house that was extended in the 60s. The roof has old lead flashing and has been letting moisture in, the roof itself is not too bad apparently. The gutters are old too and not doing their job properly and the garden slabs have been put too high up, causing water to flow into wrong places (i.e. the base of the house).

  • Old is fine. It likely just needs maintaining.

    Adding the extension may well have caused the problems, particularly with the shonky habits of the 60s.

    ^^^^ called it with the binoculars and the concrete slabs.
