Apologies; I am sure I have read something about this before, but can't find it anywhere...
We moved into a timber framed bungalow three months ago, and when the weather turns, it makes some fairly loud 'shifting' noises.
These seem to come from the loft - and are possibly amplified as it is a huge and empty loft - and occasionally seem to ripple along from one end to another.
From watching the weather, it seems to have more to do with humidity than wind or temperature changes, although it may be all (or none) of them.
Of course if you go and sit in the loft it doesn't happen, and while I have checked visible joints and the floor for 'bits' (none) it is a bit alarming as it is quite loud.
Any pointers really appreciated!
