Hi

Some advice needed please

The wall separating my property from my neighbours has exposed foundations and is leaning in places. I plan to repoint and repair some broken bricks but am unsure what to do with the foundations.... My thoughts were

1. Fill in with concrete
2. Attach posts to wall (dug into concrete) to support the wall
3. It's been like this since I moved in about 15 years ago... So leave as it is

I have attached some pictures

Any advice welcome

Thanks for your time

Don’t just fill it with concrete or leave it as-is. Because the wall is already leaning and the foundations are exposed, the real issue is likely movement or loss of support at the base. Best approach: get a structural engineer or experienced builder to inspect it first. They can tell you if it needs underpinning, rebuilding sections, or proper reinforcement. Repointing alone won’t fix the problem, and DIY posts or concrete filling could mask the issue without solving it.
