Thanks Tony, the windows are in good shape, do you mean they could be poorly sealed against the brick on the outside

I am thinking that this moisutre maybe caused by unfilled joints in the grey looking material that projects outwards from the house (ie at 90 degrees to the facia) or perhaps the gap that seems to be between the same material and the mortar at the roof apex. Please see more photos. I have...
