Garage Footings? Cracks! :-/

[Ollyfp]

I'll have a dig around when the rain stops, but in the meantime, can anyone guess what sort of footings I'll find beneath the walls of my 1966 brick garage? There are a few cracks appearing at the rear corner!
Thanks once again!

Yes we can guess.

So helpful! Lol

It's been very wet in that corner over the last few years due to a blocked soakaway and a bad roof design. Obviously I'll be sorting out those issues, but I'm also thinking that this corner will need underpinning in some way?

OK sorry, seriously now I guess that they're concrete.

I've read that builders really skimped on garage footings in the 60s, so I'm expecting to find that they're quite shallow - hence the sagging corner. I'll post pics of the dig this week.
