Hello, I am new to the forum. I will try to give as much detail as possible.
Just had a mortgage valuation done and a retention attached to it. It highlighted the fact that there was no chimney breast in the bedroom above the downstairs room where the chimney breast is. They have requested that we can prove sufficient support in the loft for the removed breast. Having looked in the loft, there has never been a chimney breast there apart from a section of about approx 2m wide where there looks like a single course of brick sticking out that runs up to the roof line. The people selling who we know don't ever recall there being a breast in the bedroom. The property is 1950's semi and the stack on the roof is long and narrow which has 6 pots/vents on it. breast in question is on a party wall. It also has a back boiler. Any ideas as to whether this is an original design or not?
