Hi all, can anyone tell me what may have caused these cracks in the brickwork. Cracks on an external wall on the front of the house. No cracks on internal wall. The cracks are approx 2mm in width. Wall is solid, not cavity. House approx 100 years old. 2 ground floor extension's have been built over the years on the back of the house. Homebuyers survey has suggested it may be the weight of the roof as they couldn't confirm lintels above the first floor windows or may be problem with supporting joists behind the wall as they noted a slight bulge in the wall roughly in the same area as the cracks. It's a middle terraced house and no cracks seem evident on neighbouring properties. There are several large trees 10 metres away and by a busy road 12 metres away.
