.... across a cavity you mean. Yes, that's right.

Yes cavity walls that are tied together like the beams are.

Yes cavity walls that are tied together like the beams are.

But not for the same reason.

That's the problem with a little bit of knowledge.

In fact everything except the padstones according to Woods.
Bizarre.

Given the cavity is where the insulation usually is, it doesn't seem a great idea to bridge it with a thick piece of concrete.

I think someone has some synapses bridged with something thick too! And that's not a good thing either

The wall is now internal (i.e. used to be external, but now that the extension is built, it is internal) - so no issue with insulation or cold bridging....
