External condition looks bad. Does that side get a lot of driving rain and can it dry out or does it stay damp? North facing etc?

Yeah, I did ask the guy who repointed the back of the house to patch that up, but guess I should have got him to rake it all out and repoint everything. It’s South facing and gets a lot of sun.

This, but with lime mortar - assuming thats a solid wall. The damage to the bricks is because of the cement mortar used previously.

What's the floor construction? It looks like itnis level with the outside, which makes me wonder about any DPC being breached.
