  • In other news, I was just admiring the ceiling in the room below, which was mercifully free of water damage where the mishap occurred, and I noticed something which looks a bit like water damage elsewhere.

    As far as I can see, there aren't any pipes here, and I've lifted a couple of boards above it without seeing any sign of damage.

    It's where the plasterboard boxing in the steel beams meet the old lath and plaster ceiling.

    Any ideas on the likely culprit?

    Edit: It doesn't feel cold or damp to the touch (not very scientific I know). It may have been there a little longer as I don't look at the ceiling too much. And it's also underneath where some boards have been hammered in, and a hearth broken up and mostly removed. In case any of that helps.
