Yeah it's supplied from the pipes behind. We have a road behind our house (very small courtyard size garden) so mains comes from there.

Mains pipe is supplied from our back into our kitchen which supplies the rest of the house. No water supply from front.

We try to keep it maintained around that as much as possible but sometimes it does go over 60

You talking about old pipes that aren't in use any more? Water supply comes in from our kitchen and we use to have old CH pipes under the ground but they were made redundant and they all run above ground now. The floor was tested for moisture last year and it passed as dry

From pipes? Because we have no pipes under the floor

Humidity on our dehumidifier is showing roughly 55 in the area which I believe should be an okay reading

No dog, I do have a cat but I think the smell of a cat urinating on my wall would stink! No smell though

Nothing in the loft straight above

I wondering if cutting down those metal beads would help in some way... worth a try I guess. No appliances like that near these walls for me though.

only thing I could think of would be CH pipes but theres no leak, boiler hasn't lost any pressure. Floor next to it is concrete/screed and thats bone dry :unsure:

yeah it's load bearing so another wall straight above it. No bathroom or toilet connected to these walls though.

no, it's ground floor with another level above, then the pitched roof space.

I'll try that out. Will also cut back some of the plaster just in case. Cheers all.

Yeh I'm a bit unsure too... if it wasn't and just contamination, would I just need to sand it all back, prime and repaint?

No, existing internal wall between two rooms bang in the middle of in a Victorian home. Just been knocked through in the past. No signs of the same damp patch anywhere else it seems
