Yes that is what the surveyor said as well. And what I hypothesised but from the floor plans did not seem to be the case. I will go tomorrow and measure just in case.

Btw the surveyor said that based on this photo, it looks like the ground wall has been slightly brought inside compared to first floor, so that it is why there was no visible chimney breast and that all should be good.
