A structural inspection was undertaken to assess the condition of the property and assist the client prior to purchase. The assessment identified several areas of concern, primarily relating to the chimney stack and its support at loft level, where the existing arrangement was found to be inadequate and not compliant with standard structural practice.

Additional observations included localised brickwork deterioration to the chimney above roof level, minor outward deviation to a side wall (within acceptable tolerance), and defects to the rear kitchen extension brickwork. While the property remains generally stable, targeted remedial works and monitoring were recommended to address these issues and ensure long-term structural performance.
