I have discovered a little patch of what I just discovered is called wet rot coniophora puteana on a solid brick party wall in my Victorian house.
It is ONLY in this specific place as photographed. Not on the wall above or below just between those two shelves.
It is in a recess to the right of the chimney breast. To the right is an outside wall with a a window. There are two airbricks under the window, but they are level with the patio and doubtless rainwater does get inside.
As you see there is a garden wall attached to the outside wall, right about the level of where the coniophora puteana is. Perhaps this wall is causing it?
How do I treat this, can I do it myself, or must I find a mould specialist in the Yellow Pages?
Thanks
